Keep a Bib Handy When Eating Juicy Honeybells
When you start eating super sweet Honeybells you’ll need a napkin, or a bib, because this rare fruit has more delicious juice than any other type of citrus fruit. Large Honeybells can contain a cup of juice or more in just one fruit. This fresh juice is fantastic with any meal or as a quick snack on the go. Use super tangy Honeybell juice to shake up your morning smoothies or weekend cocktails. No matter how use it you’ll love the refreshing taste and your family and friends will too. Small kids love Honeybells because they are easier to peel than some other types of citrus fruits like oranges or grapefruits and because they are so sweet.
Honeybells are a fruit that was developed by combining two other popular citrus fruits. A food scientist started experimenting with cross pollination and used a tangerine and a grapefruit to create a gorgeous large citrus fruit with a ruddy orange skin, unique bell shape, and huge amounts of sweet juice. Over the years Honeybells became known for both the sweetness of the juice and the amount of juice that each fruit could produce. Honeybell juice is used in high end jams and jellies that are usually expensive, but you can use fresh Honeybell juice to make preserves at home that will taste like the best gourmet preserves thanks to the delicious Honeybell juice. The Honeybell got its name from the shape and from the sweet taste of the fruit. Usually these fruits are associated with Christmas because they are only available from December until mid to late January but they are not just Christmas fruit.
Honeybells are a great alternative for people who need to watch how much refined sugar they eat. The natural sugar in Honeybells doesn’t have the same impact on the blood sugar that refined sugar has so eating totally natural Honeybells is a safe alternative to sugary treats. If you have a lot of holiday parties to go to and you’re not sure if the host will provide snacks that don’t have sugar in them stick a few Honeybells in your pocket or bag. That way no matter what food is offered at the party you’ll be able to have a tasty and sweet snack that won’t make you sick. Just make sure to pick up plenty of napkins because the super juicy Honeybells can get messy to eat!
