Key Lime (also known as Mexican Lime or bartenders lime) is a staple ingredient for many food and cosmetic products – from refreshing herbal teas to wonderful fragrances. The peel is great for adding or enhancing the flavour of foods as it tends to soften when cooked, leaving its zesty flavour intact. Key lime is also believed to have numerous health benefits.
In some cultures, key limes are believed to help cardiac problems, acne, cholesterol, scurvy and many other ailments, potentially due to the calcium and vitamin C content in the rind.
The peel is also packed full of antioxidants and aromatic essential oils, so is often added to cosmetic products that treat acne, oily skin and other skin impurities.
