I am SOO excited! I tried my first Sweet Citrus that I have actually grown. My Pineapple Orange. I have grown a ton of Calamondins, Key Limes and assorted Lemons, but this was my first sweet citrus.
Wondeful taste! The only problem I had was it was almost impossible to peel. We ended up cutting it into quarters. Is this common for the Pineapple Orange? It was also seedless, again common?
Thank You for all the help that I have received on this forum, you guys are great!

We usually cut these into several sectors just like you would a valencia orange. Then suck the flesh or juices from the cut sectors. Or simply run them through a juicer. Pineapple orange is one of the least cold hardy sweet oranges. They are grafted very low in my 50-in-1 citrus tree.
