Key Lime Juice - How to Make

Here's the trick to get "key lime" juice when one hasn't any key limes.

Use Persian (regular) limes, juice them, and add lemon juice, in a ratio of 1 part lemon juice per 4 (or 5, to taste) parts lime juice. I generally add the lemon juice in stages, a bit at a time, stirring and tasting until the mixture is sufficiently tart. Works VERY well, I'll guarantee it.

Don't buy that ridiculously expensive bottled key lime juice, sheesh!
