Throw A Tropical Winter Party With Fresh Fruit
The dead of winter doesn’t have to mean a dead stop in your partying. The early year months of January and February don’t have many holidays to celebrate but that is no reason you and your friends and family should stop enjoying the good times.
In fact, for planning a party that offers a break from the winter chill, a tropical themed party works best of all. Everyone needs a break from the cold, so getting your guests away to a “desert island” of your creation helps them hold out until the thaws of spring. And one of the best ways to bring the tropical theme home is by using fresh citrus fruit!
Fresh Citrus Fruit Warms The Body, Mind
How can fresh citrus fruit warm the body? It’s not served hot, and it’s not known for its heating properties. But fresh citrus fruit like Honeybell tangelos, navel oranges, and ruby red grapefruit offer something more nurturing and yet tastier than just a cup of coffee or hot meal. Fresh citrus fruit brings great health in a delicious package. Fresh citrus fruit also brings to mind warm summer days and lazy tropical vacations which can warm the body and the mind.
Fresh Citrus Fruit Makes a Great Centerpiece at Any Winter Party
Along with any number of tropical tree branches or mini trees and garlands fresh citrus fruit can really set the scene for a tropical party. Use fresh citrus juice in refreshing fruity drinks you serve to make drinks your guests will love. Assorted citrus fruit baskets, for example holding many servings of rich Honeybell tangelos, are available in all manner of design motifs and patterns that will fit into any party decor.
In fact, many citrus fruit baskets aren’t actually baskets at all. Some come in rustic-looking crates that would seem at home on an island pier. Some resemble the treasure chests of pirates, with enough decorative details to impress even the most discerning eye. Best of all, these delightful and exciting fruit gift baskets are delivered right to your home, so there’s no running around for them when you’re putting your party decorations together.
Honeybells Are The Fruit of Surprises
Honeybell tangelos, a wonderful hybrid of the tangerine and the grapefruit, bring an amazing amount of juice inside their soft and easy to peel rinds. Honeybell juices are some of the sweetest of the entire fruit family, so they’re also great to use for juices and mixers at your party. Honeybells are available in January, their peak growing season, just in time for winter parties.
