Australian Finger Limes

iAustralian Finger Lime Cooler

The Australian Finger Lime (or Caviar Lime) originated in Australia. They have a shape that resembles a finger and they are known for their flavorful, caviar-like interior. The small beads of citrus are ideal for salads, cocktails, etc.
This basic Gin cocktail is a favorite of mine. I added a few Finger Limes (cut lengthwise and gently squeezed), which gives it a nice “burst” of flavor with every sip.

Gin Cooler Recipe:

  • 1 1/2 ounces of Gin

  • Juice from half of a lime

  • 3 Finger Limes

  • Splash of Mr Q Cucumber Soda

Add Gin and Lime juice to a glass and stir. Add Ice. Cut Finger Limes lengthwise and gently squeeze into cocktail. Top it off with Cucumber Soda.
