Pink Lemons

$6.99

8 oz

Pink lemons are wild variety that evolved naturally. Just like the more common, non-pink Eureka lemon, these colorful citrus fruits boast a tart, lip-puckering flavor. However, pink lemons become less acidic as they age, meaning they typically offer a sweeter flavor than what you’d expect from a lemon. Pink lemons can even boast “subtle floral and berry undertones.” Click on this item to see the full description.

Description: Also known as the “variegated pink lemon” or the “variegated Eureka lemon” due to its splotchy, colorful foliage, this unique citrus was discovered in 1930 in Burbank, California. At the time, the growers weren’t trying to cultivate pink lemons. These lush citrus fruits were a result of a spontaneous mutation on a Eureka lemon tree. The pink lemon’s flesh contains a high concentration of lycopene, an antioxidant that gives many fruits and vegetables their red pigment. Pink grapefruit and tomatoes also get their ruby hues from lycopene. The flavor is very similar to a regular Eureka lemon.

The fruit inside is a light pink, but it's not vibrant enough to dye other foods or beverages pink. When ripe, the outer peel will be completely yellow, which makes it appear to be a normal lemon (not variegated).

Uses: Now, before you grab a few pink lemons to whip up a batch of pink lemonade, it’s important to note that while the flesh of these fruits is vibrantly pink, the juice runs clear. For an extra indulgent twist to classic lemon-centric desserts like lemon bars or frozen lemonade pie. Not in the mood for dessert? Try candying pink lemon slices for an eye-catching garnish for lemonade and cocktails.
