Its intense and refreshing scent brings memories and colors of the Mediterranean. It is impossible for an Italian not to associate it with Sicily and its refreshing and delicious granita, with the Amalfi Coast and its golden lemon gardens seen from the sea, or with the fresh and intense flavor of Limoncello (liqueur made with this fruit).
Perhaps the most versatile of all fruits, it is impossible to know when man first became acquainted with lemons, but early Egyptian stories already made clear its culinary value and importance as a remedy for colds, considering its high concentration of vitamin C. In addition, lemon helps to reduce stomach acidity and improve the functioning of the digestive system.
A refreshing flavor and an intense perfume of the best Sicilian lemons are the "natural" protagonists of our recipe, which only uses water and a little sugar; no artificial emulsifiers, food coloring, or preservatives.
Lemon season: April, May, August, October, and November.
