Calamansi, also known as calamondin, is a small, round citrus fruit with a thin, smooth green skin that turns yellowish-orange when ripe. Its pulp is juicy and intensely tart, with a distinctive sweet-sour flavor profile. Often described as a cross between a mandarin orange and a lime, calamansi offers a unique citrusy tang that's perfect for adding zest and brightness to various dishes and beverages. Look for firm, unblemished fruits for the best flavor and juice yield.

Calamansi is best stored in the refrigerator to prolong its freshness and prevent it from drying out. Place the calamansi in a plastic bag or airtight container to maintain its moisture and flavor. They can typically last for 2-3 weeks when stored properly in the refrigerator. For longer storage, calamansi juice can be frozen in ice cube trays and then transferred to a freezer bag for up to 3-4 months. Avoid storing calamansi at room temperature as they will spoil quickly.
