Notes

*The size and amount of juice a lime has can vary greatly. I chose average-sized limes, and 4 was enough when I first tested this recipe three times. You may have to adjust the flavor depending on the limes (see my recipe tips below the step-by-step photos). You can use bottled lime juice, but fresh limes give a brighter, more vibrant flavor and a thicker consistency.
