How to store lemons

Lemons can be stored by refrigeration, juicing, or pickling. When refrigerating, first select lemons with smooth, undamaged surfaces. To prevent the water in the lemons from being lost too quickly, cover the surface with a layer of plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator. When juicing, peel the lemons, squeeze out the juice, and then freeze them in the refrigerator. When pickling, first slice the lemons, mix with sugar and rock sugar, seal, and place in a shaded environment.

How to store cut lemons

You can seal the cut surface of the lemon with plastic wrap and store it in the refrigerator, or store it in a fresh-keeping box in the refrigerator, or pickle the lemon slices with honey, rock sugar or white sugar and soak them in water later. You can also spread the cut lemon slices on a round plate and put them in the freezer. But be aware that the taste of the lemons will be greatly reduced when they are eaten again after being put in the refrigerator, so it is recommended to eat them as soon as possible.

How long can lemon water be kept in the refrigerator?

About two days.

Lemonade is a drink with high nutrient content, rich in sugar, vitamins and minerals. It is easy to be oxidized when left for too long, causing it to lose its corresponding nutritional value. The longer it is left, the more nutrients will be lost, and it may even breed microorganisms and change taste and deteriorate. Therefore, it is generally recommended to drink it within 4-6 hours after brewing, so that the nutritional value is the highest. If you can't finish it, store it in the refrigerator, which can keep it for about 1-2 days.
