Menton, which is famous for the lemons and oranges which grow in our wonderful micro-climate, produces many different products using this fruit: preserves, soaps, liqueurs for starters. Here you see Citrolive, which is olive oil, also grown and pressed locally, mixed with Mentonnais lemon juice.
Lovely picture, Jilly. Isn't the citrolive beautifully packaged? Can you also buy limoncello?

Absolutely! Don't you just love lemoncello? I do...
ReplyDeleteThe pictures you take say it all. Your camera is choosing wonderful things to photograph. I really like this as it is a continued kind of story from the parade to what happens to all the citrus that was used in it.
ReplyDeleteI assume the Mentonnais lemon juice is a local speciality.
Wouldn't the citrolive be perfect to dress up a salad? What else do you use it for, Jilly?
ReplyDeleteI suppose it's very tasty and even the bottles are nice.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful bottles!! This is what I envision the Mediterranean is all about -- olives, lemon, lavender.
