Anytime is a Good Time for Honeybells

What’s the best way to enjoy Honeybell tangelos? Some people like to eat them straight out of the crate, while others find new and different ways to try them out. The Honeybell, like all fresh citrus fruits, is a versatile and durable food with lots of potential for any number of recipes. The following list includes just some different ways to have fun with your Honeybells.

Juice For Breakfast

Honeybells are known for their delicious and ample supply of sweet, tangy juice. Eaten with other parts of a healthy breakfast, the Honeybell’s juice can make the perfect, energizing start to your busy day. Honeybells work great with any electric juicer, so you get the most juice from the honeybell’s soft and succulent pulp. As an extra flavor idea, Honeybells can also be mixed with other fruit juices and extracts inside the juicer, creating an original, vitamin-packed health food potion that will really set you going. Mix the Honeybell juice with orange juice, apple and pear juices, or even simple grapefruit juice. The limits are defined only by your imagination and your own personal tastes.

Honeybells For Lunch

Honeybells are a filling, nutritious midday meal or snack, loaded with plenty of Vitamin C to give you energy and fiber to keep you moving without that empty feeling that junk food inevitably causes. Honeybells make a great chance to replace less healthy parts of the typical lunch such as potato chips or French fries with food that’s both good for you and comparatively cheaper. Honeybells are also easier to digest than junk food, so you won’t get sleepy or bloated when you get back to work. They clean up in seconds and require nothing more than a plate and napkin to enjoy.

Honeybells for Dessert

Honeybells also make a perfect dessert after your evening meal. Honeybells are fine all by themselves, but they go well with some rich vanilla ice cream, too. You could also serve Honeybells with pound cake or angel food cake, using a sweet honey or orange glaze to put the two together into a sweet, filling dessert taste sensation.

Honeybells and Cocktails

Honeybell juice also makes a great companion to your cocktails, especially vodka and rum. For example, a Honeybell and vodka combination would taste much like a very sweet Greyhound. A rum and Honeybell mixed drink would seem much like a tropical cocktail such as a rum runner or cape cod.
