Tangerine

The Tangerine Emoji 🍊 features a small, round orange citrus fruit, complete with a tiny leafy sprig at its stem and a dimpled surface for a touch of realism.

Often sent to express freshness, vitamin-rich snacks, or the joys of winter and Lunar New Year, it’s also used playfully to suggest a burst of energy or a reminder to eat healthy.

It stands apart from its yellow 🍋 Lemon sibling by color alone, and is distinguished from orange or nectarine emoji by category—never mind that users tend to treat them as citrus stand-ins regardless (the difference is mostly zest-deep).

Look for it by typing "tangerine," "orange," "fruit," or even "vitamin C."
