Bring bold citrus flavour into your kitchen with our Fresh Green Lemons – tart, aromatic, and bursting with natural juice. Grown in South Africa’s top citrus regions, these lemons are perfect for cooking, juicing, garnishing, or household cleaning.
At Betty Fruit Market South Africa, we deliver premium-grade green lemons sourced from certified local farms to ensure maximum freshness, quality, and flavour.
Product Overview
Fresh Green Lemons are picked just before their full yellow ripening stage, giving them:
- A firmer texture and brighter, tangier flavour
- Higher juice content than fully ripened yellow lemons
- A longer shelf life
- A vibrant green skin, ideal for culinary presentation
Used widely in drinks, dressings, preserves, and cleaning, green lemons are a versatile essential in every South African home and restaurant.
