Honeybells Make A Wonderful Belated Gift

Sooner or later most people find themselves in the awkward position of having to give a holiday season gift after the holidays have run their course. Maybe you are seeing someone you didn’t see during the holidays, or you didn’t think to provide a gift for someone but need to give one. After the fact gift giving can be tricky, because you want a gift that impresses but at the same time also sort of excuses your belated best wishes.

One of the best holiday season gifts you can give actually isn’t available during the holidays. The gift of a Honeybell citrus fruit basket will show them your generosity, your consideration, and your gift-giving creativity all at once. Honeybells are also a perfect gift for the health-conscious people in your life, as well as for anyone who enjoys the delicious and refreshing taste of pure citrus fruit juice. And because Honeybells don’t come into season until the very end of the holiday season you can use that as an excuse for not having sent the gift earlier.

Honeybells Are Juicy

Many people who try a Honeybell tangelo for the first time are taken aback by how much juice the Honeybell contains inside its succulent pulp. Honeybells are sometimes lovingly called “the fruit that needs a glass,” since the sweet juice inside often pours right out of the pulp in a small torrent. Honeybells are available in January and sometimes February, a time when the warm temperatures of summer often seem their most remote. By giving a fresh and delicious citrus fruit packed with plenty of juice, you give your gift recipient the gift of a small burst of summer amid the gray winter chill.

Honeybells Are Nutritious

The Honeybell tangelo is also one of the most nutritious citrus fruits available. Honeybells are loaded with Vitamin A and Vitamin C, two of the most important vitamins both for the mind and body. Vitamin A is a proven asset to both the maintenance of eyesight and to the care and defense of skin. Vitamin C is used to help the body resist disease and to help give it energy. Honeybells are also rich in calcium and fiber, so the gift of a Honeybell citrus fruit gift basket is just like giving the gift of continued health through the new year. Remember to order early however, as supplies are limited.
