Availability: In stock
Lime Juice is a key ingredient in many food and cocktail recipes that simply cannot be substituted. Unfortunately, limes are hyper seasonal, and have a very short shelf life of only 48 hours once juiced. During the South African summer periods, all limes are imported, thus pushing the cost up to insane amounts, and the carbon footprint of this process is horrific!
Lekka Lime was created to solve all these problems.
Lekka Lime is lime juice that’s made, not grown, while using the same recipe as nature.
Natural ingredients like Water, Citric acid, Malic acid, Sugar, Citrus Fibres etc are all blended together in the same ratios found in nature, to create an excellent substitute to freshly juiced limes. It tastes and looks identical and is perfect for cocktails and cooking.
Furthermore, Lekka Lime solves the 5 biggest problems for bar owners,
- Availability,
- Consistency
- Cost.
- Shelf Life
- Sustainability (Even our bottles are plant based and are biodegradable!)
Lekka Lime is super consistent, available year round, at the same price, without seasonal hikes. It also has a 12 month Shelf life.
Fresh lime flavour with crisp acidity designed for mojitos, margaritas and tropical drinks. Delivers consistent citrus brightness in high-volume bar service. Wholesale lime syrup for hospitality and cocktail programs throughout the Western Cape.
