• 1 airtight container with lid

INSTRUCTIONS

3. Fill the container with enough cold water to completely submerge the lemons.
4. Seal the container tightly with the lid.
5. Store the container in the refrigerator.
6. Change the water every 1–2 weeks for best freshness.
7. Remove lemons as needed and return the rest to the container.

TIPS

🍋 Choose firm, unblemished lemons for longer storage.

🍋 Make sure all lemons remain fully submerged in water.

🍋 Use a glass or food-grade plastic container with a tight-fitting lid.

🍋 Replace the water if it becomes cloudy.

🍋 Label the container with the storage date to track freshness.

🍋 This method helps reduce moisture loss and keeps lemons juicy much longer than storing them loose in the refrigerator.
