Algerian clementine, my favorite mandarin for its rich and aromatic flavor.
We like them so much eaten fresh out of hand that I’ve never felt a need to preserve them until now. The tree has grown larger, it produces more fruit than we can easily eat, and it is raining. Now is a good time to make clementine marmalade. I love marmalade, let’s make some!
I gather enough fruit, go to get the sugar and… no, I really don’t feel like sugar today. After the holidays… no, please. No more sweets. Not even marmalade from my beloved clementines. Not even.
But a nice glass of fresh squeezed clementine juice?
Heaven!

Will there be some left on the tree in February?

Maybe…We need to wait till February and see
Actually, the season for clementines goes from January to April, depending on local, of course. February should be fine

That’s a good craving, go make yourself some, it’s good for you. Do you have a mandarin tree?
