Notes

Expert Tips

The extra-tart Key lime is smaller, rounder and yellower than the standard Persian limes found at most grocery-stores. When purchasing, look for smooth-skinned, heavy limes. These are indications the fruit is fresh and juicy. Unless you live in the Florida Keys, you might have to visit a specialty shop to find Key limes and you can expect to pay accordingly. An alternative to buying Key limes is to look for Key lime juice at your grocery store.
