Harvesting our finger limes

As you know, our finger lime tree has had a dozen or so fruit growing plumper and plumper over the last few weeks, and they are now starting to fall off. A sure sign that they can be eaten. So, today, I made a very refreshing drink from soda water and a couple of finger lime fruit. You cut the end off and then squeeze out the pulp, which fell into the glass of soda water like little globules of caviar, each one bursting with limey sweet-bitterness when they pop in your mouth.
