Press, zester, or a bag of fruit
Persian lime in a Central Florida pot is acid fruit. UF/IFAS puts lime on the tender side of the citrus freeze line. The kitchen split is press versus zest versus buying fruit when a cold night takes the tree.
| Job | What you pick | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Juice | A lime press | A handheld press is the weeknight tool. It is not a tree. |
| Peel | A fine zester | Lime zest is the oil layer. The pith is bitter. |
| Gap | A grocery bag | When the pot comes inside for a freeze, the bowl is store fruit. |
Press a weeknight lime without a hinged gadget fight. Get this. Zest the oil layer. The pith is bitter. Get this.
