Crisp & Refreshing! Pink lemons are often less tart and sweeter than yellow lemons. The combination of the cucumber and sweet pink lemon is perfection.
When life gives you pink lemons
Add a little cucumber & gin and you’ve got yourself a cocktail!
Cucumber & Pink Lemons are from the amazing LocalFarmOK variety bag! I love supporting our local farmers.
