Fingerlimes
Fingerlimes are best described as citrus caviar. Juice bursts from the tiny pearls when bitten on and results in a fresh-sour flavor that most closely resembles a combination of lemon, lime and grapefruit.
Origin
Fingerlimes are native to Australia and have been grown there since 1895.

Storage tips
Rather than storing fingerlimes in the refrigerator, store them on the fruit bowl, where they will keep for 1 to 2 weeks.
Preparation tips
Fingerlimes can be used in place of lemon or lime on seafood, desserts and cocktails. Halve the fingerlimes and gently push out the pearls. You can also slice them, like a lime.
