Honey Citron

It is primarily a mixture of citron slices made into a marmalade plus honey. The citron, also known as yuzu, is a citrus that looks like a deformed lemon. It’s a brilliantly yellow fruit. It has a very thick rind and normally this is commonly candied and made into marmalade or a jam with fruit chunks or slices in the sweetened jelly. This marmalade is what Koreans normally mix into water to make their drinks.

The citron is known for its distinct taste and aroma and is actually quite tart in flavor. What makes it different from lemons is that it is not very juicy. It’s the thick rind that makes it great for marmalade and making into a drink since the zest of the citrus is loaded with flavor.
