What is Meyer Lemon ?

Meyer lemon is a special variety of lemon that is known for its unique flavor and characteristics. It's believed to be a cross between a traditional lemon and a mandarin orange, resulting in a sweeter and less acidic fruit. Meyer lemons are smaller and rounder than regular lemons, with thin, smooth, and deep yellow to orange-colored skin. Their pulp is a vibrant yellow-orange, and they have fewer seeds than typical lemons. The flavor of Meyer lemons is what sets them apart. They are less tart and sour compared to regular lemons, with a delightful sweetness that hints at a mild floral or herbal note.
