You can do the experiment yourself. Put Orange Juice in a thin plastic measuring up then submerge the cup straight up in water, letting it float (without letting them mix). Then compare the volume of displaced water (should be the water level on the measuring cup) with the volume of orange juice. The ratio of these will be the density in g/cm^-3, since water has density ~1 g/cm^-3.

I just did the experiment. Assuming negligible effects from the cup, I found that 8 oz of orange juice displaced about 10 oz of water. Therefore, orange juice has density = 10/8 times that of water. In units of g/cm^-3, water's density is 1. Therefore, the density of orange juice is about 1.25 g/cm^-3.

Yummy.

Hello Yummy OP: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^The above answerer "Yummy" really is far off saying 1.25 g/cc. I just poured as exactly as my measuring cup allowed, 8 fl oz (240 cc) of Lots of Pulp Tropicana Pure Premium OJ into it and put it on an accurate gram scale. The weight was 249.9 grams, call it 250. 250g/240mL comes out to be very close to 1.04 g/cc. Just to be sure, I checked an orange juice website and they measure how sweet OJ is by brix. Good OJ is over 8.5 brix. Let's call it 9 for giggles. A brix of 9 corresponds to 1.036 g/cc according to the brix charts. *all confirmed*. I am a loser.

What is in the orange juice that can make the egg float?

The reason an egg floats in orange juice is due to its density. Orange juice has a higher density than water, which causes the egg, which is less dense, to float. This is because the egg displaces an amount of orange juice equal to its weight, making it buoyant.
