This sugar recipe can be used for sprinkling on fruits, added to iced tea or lemonade, or even sprinkled on cakes and cookies.
6 limes
2 and 1/4 cups sugar
Remove zest from limes in thin strips using a vegetable peeler. Cut away any white pith from the zest (it imparts a bitter flavor).
Chop zest and then grind in a food processor along with the sugar until the mixture is pale green with bits of zest still visible.
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
Makes about 2 1/2 cups.
