Description

Rose's lime juice is a concentrated lime juice with sugar, commonly used as an ingredient in the preparation of cocktails, dressings, marinades, and various recipes that require a sweet and sour touch at the same time.

This product was originally developed by the brand Rose's, founded in England in the 19th century, famous for its concentrated lime juice that is preserved through a process that ensures its stability and flavor for long periods without the need for refrigeration.

Rose's lime juice provides an intense citrus flavor, slightly sweet and less acidic than fresh lime juice, making it ideal for balancing flavors in drinks like the famous Whiskey Sour, margaritas, and other classic cocktails, as well as in some recipes that require a soft citrus touch.

Regarding its properties, in addition to the vitamin C contribution from the lime, it contains sugar which can influence the final flavor of the preparations. Its concentration and preservation make it practical for culinary use and bartending, avoiding the variability that fresh juice can have.

In Latin America, although there is no exact synonym for the Rose's brand product, it is commonly known as concentrated lime juice or sweet lime juice. In some countries, the lime may also be called limón (especially in Mexico, although there Rose's lime juice is known as such). It is important not to confuse it with fresh or squeezed lemon juice, as Rose’s contains sugar and is an industrial concentrate.
