Limes

So cute and the baby of the citrus family, limes are full of vitamin C and used to add flavor and zest to soups, salads, vegetables, fish, and of course your favorite key lime pie recipe. Add a slice and twist of lime to your favorite drink or use them in a vase for an added splash of color in your home. 

Limes came to the United States from Spain in the 16^th century and were first planted in the Florida Keys where they became known as “Key Limes". Enjoyed for their refreshing flavor and pretty green color, limes are a year round kitchen staple. Did you know that limes can be used to clean your copper pans and cutting boards too?

Storage: Store limes in the refrigerator for up to three weeks or at room temperature away from sunlight for up to one week.
