Notes

  • If you are making sweet lime juice for religious Hindu fast or vrat, then add edible rock salt (sendha namak).
  • Try to juice with the sweet tasting sweet limes. If the sweet limes are not sweet enough, you will need to some sweetener. 
  • Feel free to add your preferred sweeteners. 
  • Do not store the juice as it becomes bitter. Drink it as soon as you make it.
