FOWLER, CA - Summer calls for an uptick in citrus intake, whether it be for refreshing cocktails or a flavorful entree. While California’s domestic citrus season is winding down, Bee Sweet Citrus is assuring retailers that it has an ample supply of Royal Red Oranges, Star Ruby Grapefruit, and Lemons to meet current consumer demand.
“Right now, our Royal Red Oranges are showing beautiful blushed rinds and vibrant magenta hues,” stated Bee Sweet Citrus Director of Communications Monique Mueller. “Their sweet, berry-like flavor make them an excellent addition to summer salads, desserts, and even cocktails.”
Another star taking the spotlight is Bee Sweet’s Star Ruby Grapefruit.
“Our Star Ruby Grapefruit is extremely juicy and sweet, and we’ll have a great supply of bulk and bag options through the end of August,” stated Bee Sweet Citrus Sales Representative Sergio Rodriguez. “With summer holidays on the horizon, now would be an excellent time to promote our 3 and 5 lb bags.”
In addition to harvesting Royal Red Oranges and Star Ruby Grapefruit, Bee Sweet is also harvesting lemons in Central Valley and lightly in the Central Coast region.
According to a press release, this winter’s above-average rainfall has caused the lemons to grow exponentially in size but has kept quality intact. As a result, the citrus maven will have lemon availability throughout the summer, with supplemental volume coming in through its annual import program.
Summer is just around the corner, and consumers are already in preparation for outdoor barbecues and other exciting gatherings. With citrus catering to a wide variety of recipes, Bee Sweet Citrus’ lineup helps retailers easily meet this elevated demand.
All of Bee Sweet’s varieties are packaged in vibrant, high-graphic packaging and are available in both bag and bulk options.
