When it comes to choosing real, fresh citrus fruit is totally worth the squeeze. Just-juiced limes always produce perfectly tart margaritas. Homemade pies pop brilliantly with colorful grapefruit and bold blood oranges. Even just a sprinkling of lemon zest on our go-to Lemon Chicken Lettuce Wraps takes weeknight dinners from dull to dazzling. Whether a quick squirt of key lime or a garnish of sweet mandarins, citrus is one of our choice ingredients for adding a zip of brightness to whatever we’re making.
