Winter Citrus

Share

Bell shaped minneolas, Page Mandarin, Clementine and Fremont Mandarin are just a few of the winter citrus varieties.

The Minneola tangelo is a cross between a Duncan grapefruit and a Dancy tangerine.  They have thin reddish orange skin that is easy to peel and the shape is like a bell.  The fruit combines the sweetness of the mandarin with the tart flavors of the grapefruit, and it is highly prized for its juiciness and combination of sweet/sour flavors.
