There are several ways to freeze lemons, depending on how you plan to use them:
1. Whole Lemons
Wash and dry lemons thoroughly.
Place in a freezer bag or airtight container.
Use later for zesting or juicing once thawed.
2. Lemon Slices or Wedges
Slice lemons into rounds or wedges.
Lay on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and freeze for 1-2 hours.
Transfer frozen slices to a freezer-safe bag for easy access.
3. Grated Lemon Zest
Grate the zest of fresh lemons before freezing.
Store in a small sealed container or portioned into ice cube trays.
4. Lemon Juice Cubes
Juice the lemons and pour into ice cube trays.
Freeze until solid, then store in bags for quick use in recipes, teas, or smoothies.
Why It’s So Beneficial
Maximizes Nutrients: Freezing lemons makes the peel easier to grate, allowing you to use the whole fruit. The peel contains 5–10 times more vitamins than the juice!
Antioxidant Powerhouse: Lemons are rich in vitamin C and limonoids, which boost immunity and fight inflammation.
Alkalizing Effect: Despite their acidity, lemons are alkaline-forming in the body, helping balance pH.
Digestive Aid: Lemon peel and juice promote digestion and liver health.
Easy to Use Anytime: Add zest or frozen lemon cubes directly to drinks, baked goods, sauces, marinades, or salads.
