Limes have a tart, acidic taste with just a slight hint of sweetness. They’re bright and vibrant, with a distinct zesty sour flavour, and their mouth-puckering bitterness is why they’re not eaten whole like an orange.

Lime Description:

Limes have a tart, acidic taste with just a slight hint of sweetness. They’re bright and vibrant, with a distinct zesty sour flavour, and their mouth-puckering bitterness is why they’re not eaten whole like an orange. A lime is a citrus fruit, which is typically round, green in colour, 3–6 centimetres (1.2–2.4 in) in diameter, and contains acidic juice vesicles. Wild limes probably originated in the Indonesian archipelago or the nearby mainland of Asia. Arabian traders may have taken limes, as well as lemons, from India to the eastern Mediterranean countries.

Health Benefits:

Limes are high in vitamin C and antioxidants — both of which may offer health benefits. Eating limes or drinking the juice may improve immunity, reduce heart disease risk factors, prevent kidney stones, aid iron absorption, and promote healthy skin. Avoid limes if you’re allergic to citrus fruit.
