Warmer weather is finally here, which means light, crisp, refreshing drinks are in order. We always have lemons on hand for cooking, drinks, smoothies, or simply squeezing fresh lemon juice over a green salad. Lemons are so pretty when left out on the counter in a pretty bowl (I usually leave about half the bag out for added kitchen decor), but it turns out they’ll last much longer if kept in the fridge and sealed in a plastic bag. I came across this tip for long-lasting lemons from the kitchn a few days ago and I think it’s worth keeping in mind, especially if you like and buy lemons as much as we do! : )
What are your favorite recipes with lemons? I’m always looking for new ways to cook with lemons and you can’t go wrong with a glass of refreshing lemonade.
