We Californians are so lucky that even in the middle of winter we have an abundance of fresh fruits! Citrus is king this time of year with almost every color of the rainbow of citrus fruits available… lemons, pommelos, tangerines, tangelos, oranges, cara caras, mango oranges, blood oranges, pink grapefruit…

We like to think of citrus fruits as liquid sunshine– full of tons of Vitamin C to keep us healthy in the winter. And this “energy drink” comes in a perfectly convenient bio-degradable package too!

Simply slice fruits for dessert, or use a citrus juicer to make a colorful juice!
