What can I use as a substitute for lime juice?

You can use lemon juice, vinegar, or even orange juice as substitutes for lime juice in recipes.

How does the flavor change with these substitutes?

Lemon juice is the closest in flavor, but it’s slightly sweeter. Vinegar adds acidity without the citrus notes, and orange juice is sweeter and less tart.

Are there any other alternatives I can try?

Yes, you can also use citric acid or a combination of lemon and vinegar for a similar tangy flavor.

What about using lime zest instead?

Lime zest can add a great lime flavor without the acidity, so it’s a good option if you want to enhance the taste.

Thanks! This helps a lot.
