Native to the northern coast of Australia, finger limes are a superfood teeming with immunity-boosting nutrition.

The fruit of a rare rainforest tree, finger lime has been an important food for Aboriginal people for thousands of years. It was eaten because of it’s ability to protect people from disease, and the juice was used as an antiseptic for infected sores.

But finger limes have recently been re-discovered, particularly by the restaurant industry, for their lemon-lime flavour and their organic nature. Loved by famous international chefs such as René Redzepi, finger limes are now an important ingredient for chefs around the world who are discovering the unique and abundant benefits of Australian Superfoods.

As well as having a beautiful sweet and sour zest, finger limes are highly nutritious, providing us with Folate, Potassium and Vitamin C. In fact, one finger lime contains three times the amount of Vitamin C than a mandarin.

Not only rich in Vitamin C (which makes up 32% of their nutritional value), finger limes are teeming with Vitamin E, which is an important antioxidant needed to protect us from disease.

Bare Blends’ finger limes are harvested in our local area, the Northern Rivers area of New South Wales for most of the year. They are an integral ingredient in our Bare Juice Immunity.
