What it is

Reconstituted lime juice is made by adding water and sometimes preservatives to lime juice concentrate. The concentrate is produced by extracting juice from limes and then removing water and volatile flavor compounds through evaporation.

Why it's used

Manufacturers add reconstituted lime juice to provide a tart, citrus flavor and acidity to foods. It is commonly found in salad dressings, marinades, sauces, salsas, and some marmalades.

Health notes

Reconstituted lime juice is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It provides vitamin C, an antioxidant important for immune function. JECFA has evaluated citric acid, a component of lime juice, and established an acceptable daily intake. No significant health concerns are associated with its typical consumption in foods.

Allergen info

Lime juice is not derived from any of the FDA's major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
