I'd like to try this recipe using sour orange juice instead of lemon juice,
putting it into a chocolate-graham crust and drizzling with melted
chocolate.

This reminds me of the "You Know You Live In Florida" thread: If I were one
of those LUCKY FLORIDIANS, I'd be able to get sour oranges (Hell, there'd
probably be three or four sour orange trees on my lawn).
