I am planning on brewing this tomorrow. Does it make a difference in using key limes as opposed to the regular persian limes found in most grocery stores? im having trouble finding fresh key limes. Thanks!

the juice from one regular lime should be fine, around here key limes are cheaper, so that's what I usually have around.

Thanks for the help. I'm very excited about this recipe and i know my English girlfriend is excited to have something more traditional for her to drink. Thanks for the recipe.

I've got a gallon experimental batch going with juice and a can of concentrate, starting gravity 1.062. It's been fermenting about three weeks. I've got tea bags and an acid blend sitting around and I'm interested in trying this out. Is there any reason I shouldn't add in some tannins or acids when I rack it to secondary? I'd probably create the mixture and then put it in the oven at 175 or 200*F to pasteurize it without boiling, then cool it to temperature and toss it in...
Sounds good, as long as you are sure that you pasteurized the acid and tea mixture, I wouldn't know how much acid blend though, I've never used it myself.
