HTTP client from apache is good, also look into jackson which will provide JSON parsing (https://github.com/FasterXML/jackson-core).

UPDATE: Something else you can look into is Spring's RestTemplate. This might be even easier to use than HTTP client.

If you want to perform HTTP request to another server I recommend you to user Apache HTTP client. You can configure it using Spring XML and inject into the context just as any other bean.
