Why Black Lime Makes It Special
Black limes are blanched in salt water and dried in the sun. That process creates a smoky, savory citrus note you cannot get from fresh lime. It brings depth and a hint of earthiness that pairs beautifully with crisp blanco tequila. Our mixer captures that flavor and keeps it balanced so every margarita tastes consistent and complex.
