Ingredients & Lore

blended with yerba mate tea, orange, natural lemon flavor, natural orange flavor & marigold flowers

Citrus fruits include any number of fruits with rinds, segmented flesh, and strongly scented skin, such as lemons, limes, bergamot, pomelo, oranges, kumquats, and more. Depending on the variety, the flesh and rind may or may not be edible, while others are more valued for the zest or oils of their skins. Citrus flavors range from sweet to tart, and the shapes are generally circular or oblong (with rare exceptions like the multi-pronged Buddha's hand citron). In cooking they are valued for their ability to add tartness, sweetness, or brightness, the latter of which is showcased here.
