Unlike our lack of passionfruit we have more limes than we know what to do with.
There is only so much lime marmalade and lime pickle that you can consume and we have had lime tea cake, lime cordial etc. so I have now resorted to freezing the lime juice
so I can make use of that rather than letting the limes go to waste. I will use the frozen juice to make Daiquiris. Now that is a good use for limes.
Apparently the daiquiri was the favourite drink of JFK and Ernest Hemingway.
I use 45ml rum and 30 ml of lime juice and a handful of crushed ice along with 2 tsp caster sugar.
….curiously, as I read your post, I am watching a documentary on the death of JFK…..
I froze lime juice also in ice cube trays. I also froze the zest too. I live in Florida so lime season comes after Christmas.
I didn’t think to freeze the zest. That is a logical thing to do as so often a recipe calls for juice and zest. I will make sure I now freeze some zest. Thanks for the idea.
