I didn't have any buttermilk, so I used regular milk instead. The scones still turned out well, but they weren't as tender as they could have been.

I used a different type of orange juice than the recipe called for, and the scones turned out fine. I think you could use any type of orange juice you like.

I'm not a fan of currants, so I omitted them from the recipe. The scones were still delicious, but I think they would have been even better with the currants.

These scones are a bit dense, but they're still delicious. I think they would be even better if they were a little lighter and fluffier.
