Combine lukewarm water, sugar, and dry yeast in a large bowl, stirring until completely dissolved. Add warm orange juice and mix well. Add 1 cup of the flour gradually, beating until smooth.

Add salt, butter, and orange and lemon zest, then beat gently.
Stir in remaining flour gradually, mixing well.
Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic (about 10 minutes).
Use 2 tsp. vegetable oil to grease a large bowl, then place dough into bowl, turning dough around to coat.
Cover bowl and place in warm place until dough has doubled in size (1-2 hours).
Punch dough down. Knead for 5 minutes. Shape into a loaf and place into an oiled loaf pan. Cover and let rise in a warm place about 1 hour.
Preheat oven to 375*F. When bread has risen, bake 35-45 minutes. When done, remove bread from pan and cool on a wire rack.
