Buy Red Caviar Lime Fruit UK

Red Caviar Limes, also known as finger limes, are now available in the UK — vibrant citrus pearls that burst with tangy-sweet flavour, perfect for elevating cocktails, desserts, and seafood dishes.

What is Red Caviar Lime Fruit?

Red Caviar Lime (Citrus australasica) is a rare variety of the Australian finger lime, prized for its striking crimson skin and ruby-coloured citrus pearls inside. When cut open, the pulp releases tiny juice-filled vesicles that resemble caviar, earning the fruit its luxurious nickname: “the caviar of citrus.”

The flavour is a lively balance of lime, grapefruit, and floral notes, making it an extraordinary garnish and culinary ingredient. Long celebrated in Australian Aboriginal cuisine, finger limes are now a gourmet favourite worldwide, especially among chefs and mixologists.
