About Lime ice cream

Lime ice cream is a refreshing and tangy dessert that combines the zesty flavor of lime juice with a creamy base. Traditionally crafted using ingredients like lime juice, lime zest, heavy cream, sugar, and sometimes eggs, it boasts a balance of tartness and sweetness. Originating as a twist on classic tropical fruit desserts, its vibrant flavor profile is particularly popular in Caribbean and Latin American cuisine. While lime ice cream provides a dose of vitamin C derived from limes, it is typically high in sugar and saturated fats, making it an occasional treat rather than an everyday snack. For a healthier option, some recipes substitute heavy cream with yogurt or use natural sweeteners. Its unique combination of citrus zest and creamy texture makes it a palate-pleasing choice on warm summer days.
