The Top Five Ways To Enjoy A Honeybell Tangelo
You’ve probably heard by now of the Honeybell tangelo and all its delicious and nutritious possibilities. The Honeybell is a favorite ingredient of the fresh citrus fruit gift basket, since the amazing taste and relative scarcity make it a true delight for anyone who enjoys fresh citrus fruit.
But did you know the Honeybell is also versatile? It’s true that Honeybells are delicious just eaten by themselves, but there are other ways to enjoy the Honeybell besides just eating the succulent pulp or drinking the tart, sweet juice. Some of the more creative ways to enjoy a Honeybell include:
Honeybells and Ice Cream
Honeybells make a great dessert topping, thanks to their sweet, honey-like taste and soft pulp. Honeybell slices go great with vanilla ice cream, topping the ice cream as a delicious fruit accent to the vanilla’s sweet taste.
Honeybells Go Great With Cake
Honeybell tangelos make a great topping for pound cake, especially if you’re using a fruit or citrus-based glaze for the cake’s topping. Just include slices of Honeybell atop the cake and watch your guests thrill to the deliciously sweet taste combination.
If you’re feeling adventurous, you might even try blending the Honeybell juice into the cake batter, to create a sweet, sweet flavor that must be tasted to be believed. Adding Honeybell juice instead of water to the cake batter will infuse the whole cake with sweetness and give the cake a healthy nutritional boost too.
Honeybells Make a Nice Cocktail
Cocktails that include fruit juice are some of the most popular and beloved mixed drinks served throughout the world. Honeybell juice goes great with vodka, rum, and gin, providing a sweet tropical taste experience that’s at the same time similar to a Screwdriver or Greyhound cocktail but without the bitterness of either. Lots of people like to toast the new year and Honeybell juice makes a great special treat. The Honeybell contains a lot of juice, so getting enough for a standard drink won’t be difficult.
Honeybells for dessert
Honeybells make a great dessert all by themselves. They help to cleanse the palate and to refresh the taste buds all by themselves.
Honeybells As a Late Night Snack
Everybody enjoys a late night snack every now and then, especially during the wintertime. Honeybells and a glass of cold milk make a satisfying, delicious treat that won’t you leave you feeling bloated when you go back to bed.
