When life gives you citrus, you can make a lot\nmore than lemonade. Cooler weather brings an abundance of citrus fruits to the\nValley and with it immune-boosting ingredients for a variety of healthy and\ntasty recipes.<\/p>\n\n\n

Citrus fruits such as oranges, lemons, limes\nand grapefruit are key factors in a healthy, well-balanced diet. By\nincorporating these fruits into your daily diet, it aids in higher vitamin C\nintake, digestive health, weight loss, heart health and water intake. <\/p>\n\n\n

With these great health benefits, it\u2019s no\nwonder we incorporate these fruits into many dishes at Merkin Vineyards Tasting\nRoom and Osteria. Here are three recipes that allow you to use every part of a\ncitrus fruit without leaving any to waste. <\/p>\n\n\n

Merkin Vineyards\u2019 Citrus Marmalade<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n

This waste-not marmalade can be made with\nnearly all the citrus fruits, including the rind. To seasonally change your\nrecipe, opt for different herbs and spices in each jar such as nutmeg for\nwinter and cinnamon for fall. Marmalades can be kept and used for up to one\nyear, so while your citrus is blooming you can make multiple jars as\npersonalized gifts for friends and family. <\/p>\n\n\n

Ingredients:<\/p>\n\n\n

2\ncups any citrus (grapefruit, lemon, orange)<\/p>\n\n\n

1\/2\ncup lemon juice<\/p>\n\n\n

2\ncups water<\/p>\n\n\n

2\ncups sugar<\/p>\n\n\n

Mason\njars with lids<\/p>\n\n\n

Preparation:<\/p>\n\n\n

Peel\nrinds from all citrus and cut fruit into eighths or sixteenths, depending on\nsize.<\/p>\n\n\n

Bring\na large pot of water to a boil over high heat. Add the peeled citrus rinds,\nremoving to rinse three times to remove bitterness.<\/p>\n\n\n

Julienne\nthe rinsed rinds into very thin slices.<\/p>\n\n\n

Place\ncut rinds, fruit, lemon juice and water in a saucepan over high heat and bring\nto a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to maintain a lively simmer. Stir\nfrequently until the fruit softens, which should take about 40 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n

Raise\nheat and return mixture to a boil, and then add the sugar. Stir continuously\nuntil the marmalade begins to darken in color and thicken.<\/p>\n\n\n

You\ncan jar the mixture immediately and use your preferred method for sealing.<\/p>\n\n\n

Citrus Tequila\nSangria <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n

To cool down during the summer, there is no\nbetter way to relax poolside than with a glass of sangria in hand. Mix it up by\nadding tequila with a refreshing white wine such as Merkin Vineyards\u2019 Chubacabra Bubbles<\/a> or Diddler<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n

Ingredients:<\/p>\n\n\n

1\ncup water<\/p>\n\n\n

1\ncup granulated sugar<\/p>\n\n\n

1\ngrapefruit<\/p>\n\n\n

3\noranges<\/p>\n\n\n

3\nlemons<\/p>\n\n\n

6\nlimes<\/p>\n\n\n

1\ncup tequila<\/p>\n\n\n

750\nmL white wine<\/p>\n\n\n

5\ncups club soda<\/p>\n\n\n

Preparation:<\/p>\n\n\n

Combine\nwater and sugar in a saucepan, bring mixture to a boil, then remove from heat\nand let cool.<\/p>\n\n\n

Squeeze\nfresh juice from 1\/2 grapefruit, 2 oranges, 2 lemons, and 4 limes into the\nsimple syrup, then stir.<\/p>\n\n\n

Use\na mesh sieve, strain the citrus simple syrup into a large pitcher.<\/p>\n\n\n

Slice\n1 orange, 1\/2 grapefruit, 1 lemon, 2 limes, and add the slices into the\npitcher. Pour in tequila, wine, club soda, and give it all a good stir.<\/p>\n\n\n

Serve\nwith ice and garnish with a slice of fruit.<\/p>\n\n\n

Citrus\nCompost<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n

After\nmaking all your citrus creations, there is no better way than to use what is\nleftover to help grow more of your produce. By composting the leftover citrus,\nyou are enriching the soil, reducing the need for chemical fertilizers and\nassisting the soil pH level to grow more beautiful produce. <\/p>\n\n\n

Steps:<\/p>\n\n\n

Use\nall citrus waste (rinds, peels, skin)<\/p>\n\n\n

Shred\ninto smaller pieces for easier breakdown<\/p>\n\n\n

Add\ncitrus compost onto desired soil and mix into soil<\/p>\n\n\n

Keep\ncompost moist <\/p>\n\n\n

Make\nthe most of your citrus surplus without leaving anything to waste, and your\nsoil will be primed and ready for next season!<\/p>\n\n\n
