每年的春节，我都会买两株吉柑树作为新年装饰。
树上的吉柑（通常我们称为酸柑），可以耐上四、五个月，然后就逐渐掉落。过去几年，我把两颗树栽在我家的后院。不上两年，就成长，结果。有时果子太多，也找不上用途，只好让它自然成熟、掉落。
后来我们学到了一个好办法，就是把成熟果实全部採下，揸压成汁，冰冻成块。
偶尔把一、两块放入一杯水中饮用，非常的清新可口，特别是大热天，更是提神开胃。
Every Chinese New Year, I would buy 2 pots of lime trees as decoration. The fruits usually lasted about 4 to 5 months.
Few years ago, I transplanted 2 trees to my backyard. It matured after about 2 years and bearing plenty of lime fruits. Sometimes it was too much that I just let them dropped off to the ground.
However, we learned a new way of making use of them.
We would harvest mature fruits, juiced them and kept as ice cubes. Add one or two pieces can turn plain water into refreshing drinks, especially during hot days.
