Lemon Shortage, ahhh!!!

I LOVE lemons.  In my detox tea, smoothies, guacamole, and to season fish to name a few.  I love the health benefits such as flushing toxins, aiding digestion, reducing joint pain (as it dissolves uric acid), strengthening liver function, natural immune defense, and a great source of Vit. C, potassium, calcium, phosphorus, and magnesium.  I had recently noticed grocery stores being out of lemons and when asked why they had no answer.  So I did what we all do and "googled" it.  Come to find out there is a GLOBAL shortage of lemons due to drought.  The link below states:

  "By the end of July lemons will have almost completely run out,"

 I panicked, and even looked into purchasing a lemon tree to grow indoors (might still get one).  I did some research and they will be scarce until September.
