Sicilian Lime Juice (liquid)

It appears as a light green liquid, with a fresh, intense, and typically citrusy aromatic profile. The taste is distinctly acidic yet balanced, with a fine aromatic note that sets it apart from lemon due to its greater roundness and olfactory freshness.

Sicilian Lime Juice stands out for its high natural content of vitamin C, a powerful antioxidant that contributes to protecting cells from oxidative stress and to the normal functioning of the immune system. The significant presence of citric acid physiologically supports digestion and contributes to maintaining metabolic balance.

The juice also contains flavonoids and polyphenols naturally present in the fruit, bioactive compounds known for their antioxidant action and for supporting cellular defense mechanisms. The natural mineral content, particularly potassium, contributes to electrolyte balance and proper muscular and cardiovascular function.

Overall, the juice offers a naturally refreshing, invigorating, and revitalizing effect, ideal for wellness-oriented formulations.

Powdered Sicilian Lime Juice

Lime juice powder is a pale yellow powder obtained by spray-drying juice from Sicilian-grown limes as the raw material, retaining the natural aroma and flavor of lime juice. Lime differs from lemon in taste, being less acidic and more bitter.

Lime is a fruit rich in vitamin C and B1, with antioxidant properties that support the immune system. Its pulp also contains potassium, magnesium, folic acid, and flavonoids that help prevent viruses and bacteria.

Lime, like other citrus fruits, has a high vitamin C content, although lower than that of lemon, with twice the vitamin A compared to lemon and also vitamin E. It is also very rich in potassium, calcium, and phosphorus. Lastly, lime is rich in citric acid, which helps stomach acids promote digestion and peristalsis.

Powdered lime juice effectively preserves the nutrients and flavor of Sicilian lime and acts as a natural flavoring agent. The powdered juice can be used directly without the addition of flavors, colorants, or preservatives.
