About Lime juice, raw

The Persian lime, also called the Tahiti lime, is the common seedless lime found in most grocery stores, a naturally larger, plumper, and less acidic cousin of the small Key lime. Green-skinned and juicy with a bright, tart, refreshing flavor, it is prized for being nearly seedless, thin-skinned, and generous with juice. Low in calories, it is an excellent source of vitamin C and supplies antioxidants and aromatic oils in its fragrant zest.

The Persian lime is one of the most useful fruits in the kitchen: its juice brightens guacamole, ceviche, marinades, dressings, and countless sauces, its zest perfumes desserts and drinks, and it is essential to cocktails from the margarita and mojito to the classic gin and tonic, as well as limeade and many nonalcoholic coolers. Choose firm, glossy fruit that feels heavy for its size, and store limes at room temperature for a few days or in the refrigerator for longer.
