I have to speak up for this tea! Orange Pekoe means a certain grade of tea leaves, particularly Ceylon tea (tea from Sri Lanka) rather than indicating a type of citrus fruit in it.

The Western world import tea from India, Sri Lanka and China. But tea from Sri Lanka is particularly famous.
The Orange Pekoe is actually quite mild. Some Ceylon teas are stronger than the Orange Pekoe and it turns out with orange colour too. But no orange in it.
