What is lime water?
Lime water is water infused with lime juice or slices, made by squeezing lime into water or adding lime slices to infuse flavor. It's enjoyed as a refreshing drink or base for cocktails, and can also be used in cooking and baking for a citrusy flavor.
What is the best way to juice citrus?
To juice citrus fruits effectively, start by rolling the fruit on a flat surface to break down the membranes and increase juiciness. Then, cut the fruit in half and use a citrus juicer, reamer, or press to extract the juice.
You can also use a fork, or simply squeeze the fruit over a bowl or strainer to catch seeds if tools are unavailable. Check out my collection of fruit infused drink recipes!
