Limes are one of the most popular varieties of limes, though not often easy to find, especially outside of tropical regions. They contain what is considered to be the most concentrated lime flavor.

Finger Limes aka Caviar Limes have a thin, green/yellow/red rind with very strong citrus aroma. What makes these Limes unique, is the fact that they are shaped like fingers, and when squeezed produce very little juice. They contain "pods" or "pearls" that contain the lime juice. These pods have a very similar "popping" texture like that of caviar. This is one of the more difficult to find varieties of lime. Native to Australia, there are a few farmers that grow these limes in the United States. The flavor of the flesh is highly acidic. iHeartFruitBox is a trusted source of SEEDED Finger Limes sourced from local South Florida farmers.

The finger/caviar lime is highly alkalizing for the body. Finger limes are available year round, with the exception of a few weeks.
