Lime

EverydayFresh

Lime is a small citrus fruit characterized by its bright green color, intense tartness, and high concentration of vitamin C. More acidic than its lemon cousin, fresh lime juice and zest are fundamental to balancing flavors in Mexican, Thai, and Vietnamese dishes. The fruit's essential oils contain antioxidants like limonene, while its low calorie count makes it a popular flavor enhancer in both savory recipes and cocktails.
