When Are Lemons in Season?
Unlike some other very seasonal fruits, lemons are available all year round. So you can find them in your grocery store whenever you need them for baking, cocktail recipes or simply infusing a bit of citrus flavor to your water. Meyer lemons peak in the winter though, from November to April, and are sweeter than regular lemons. You’ll be able to identify them by their intensely deep yellow, super soft skin.
