Add a touch of citrus to your cooking with Suncoast Limes
Fragrant, vibrant, refreshing, flavoursome and visually spectacular – its the simple lime.
Limes are one of nature’s wonders and Suncoast Limes, nestled at the foothills of the Mount Boulder National Park, can’t get enough of the simple lime. From its own limes Suncoast makes drinks, cordials, juice and salts as well as supplying limes all year round to restaurants and retailers. Suncoast is the whole package – growing, picking, making and selling. You can find the team at the Fig Tree Farmers Market on a Wednesday afternoon where you can get all your lime supplies, perfect timing for a Friday afternoon sunset gin and tonic.
The Suncoast Limes range includes Lime ReFRESHer Juice, which has no preservatives, artificial flavours or colours and two versions, one sweetened with Australian cane sugar and another diabetic friendly low-GI version with 100% natural Xylitol. Food connoisseurs will love the lime salt, perfect for seafood, salads and Asian dishes. Having taken years to perfect its recipe, Suncoast Limes keep the details a closely guarded secret, but what they will attest is that each jar of lime salt has at least seven limes. If you are looking for something a little more adventurous, try the preserved limes in your next Moroccan chicken tagine, add a slice to a tart or the fermented juice is a dream drizzled over a cut avocado.
In addition to being packed full of flavour, the health benefits are plentiful, so if that fabulous fresh flavour doesn’t grab you then perhaps consider any ailments that might benefit from a touch of citrus in your diet.
