Fall and winter is the peak time for fresh citrus. I buy multiple bags of my two favorites; Lemons and Oranges. I dry half of them for use later, for gifts and in case of disaster - I would hate to have my hot tea without lemon and orange slices. :-( I prefer Meyer Lemons and Valencia Oranges ( both usually only available in winter) but any variety will do for dehydrating. Seedless fruit is better, otherwise you need to remove the seeds.
Pop one or two in a cup of hot tea and enjoy! They are good to eat just like candy...better 'cause these are good for you. Pretty as cake toppers too - think Orange Marmalade cake. Yummy!
