Meyer Lemon

Season: Typically peaks in winter through early spring, but available year-round in premium markets.
Flavor: Sweet, floral, and mild. It lacks the sharp "zing" of a regular lemon, offering a taste reminiscent of a lemon mixed with a subtle hint of orange or herb.

Primary uses:

Desserts: Perfect for Meyer Lemon tarts, cakes, and custards where its natural sweetness shines.
Salad Dressings: Its mild juice makes for a sophisticated vinaigrette that doesn't overpower delicate greens.
Cocktails: A popular choice for premium "Lemon Drops" or infused water.
Roasted Dishes: Since the skin is thin and less bitter, it can be sliced and roasted whole with chicken or fish.

Benefits:

High Vitamin C: A powerful boost for the immune system and skin collagen production.
Antioxidant Rich: Contains flavonoids that help protect cells from oxidative stress.
Alkalizing Effect: Helps balance the body’s pH levels despite being acidic in nature.
