Color: The brighter the better! You want the lemon to be all yellow with no green coloring. Size: It is best to choose a lemon that is heavy for its size. The heavier the lemon and the thinner the skin is usually means there is more juice inside of the fruitSmell: Smelling the fruit will also help know how strong and ripe the lemon is. So the stronger the smell, the riper the lemon! Texture: he skin of a lemon should be bright and yellow with no wrinkles on it. The wrinkle means the fruit is old and a little bitter.

Fresh lemon: Juice from a fresh lemon will be exactly that… Fresh. It still has that extra “zing” to it. Bottle of lemon juice: bottlejuice tend to have a different taste to it. Because it has to be stored, a bottle of lemon juice has extra additives and perservatives which alter the taste. This makes the flavor not quite as potent.

Refrigerator: Storing lemons in the refrigerator in a sealed plastic bag is the best way to keep lemons lasting longer. When stored at room temperature, lemons tend to harden after a week. If you are planning on using the lemons before that then the counter, pantry or basket outside of the refrigerator will work too.Freezer: Freezing lemons will work as a whole but may become mushy when thawed. The juice does stay well and still tastes delicious. Lemon slices can be frozen easily by adding them to a ziplock bag laying flat in the freezer. Lastly, freezing the juice itself is just as simple by adding the squeezed juice into ice cube trays and freezing them. This is perfect for adding to water, cooking skillet or a flavored drink.
