Lemon juice

Lemon juice

A lemon is a sour, yellow citrus fruit, a hybrid of the citron and bitter orange, known for its high vitamin C content and use in drinks, cooking, and cleaning. Its juice, pulp, and zest are used globally for flavor, while its citric acid and antioxidants offer potential health benefits like supporting heart health and preventing kidney stones. Common varieties include Eureka, Lisbon, and Meyer lemons, which are typically not eaten whole due to their sourness but are used as a garnish, in lemonade, and in recipes.
