Limes are a citrus fruit that are widely used in cooking, baking, and beverages. They are small, round, and green in color, and have a tart and acidic flavor. Limes are native to Southeast Asia and are now cultivated in many tropical and subtropical regions around the world.
Limes are often used to add flavor to dishes such as guacamole, salsa, and ceviche. They are also a key ingredient in many cocktails, such as the margarita and mojito. Lime juice is commonly used in marinades and dressings, and can also be used to add a citrusy flavor to desserts and baked goods.
