This amazing refreshing essential oil is a favourite of mine for culinary use! I make raw organic chocolate and my Lime and Chilli chocolate uses this to provide it's awesome lime flavour. I also add it to cooking oil in my wok/pan with ground ginger, chilli and black pepper. Just opening the cap and inhaling puts a smile on my face. Enjoy!

Zing zing zing! REALLY fresh, sharp and citrusy. Fab for reviving a tired pot pourri and in a morning bath. dilute in milk or oatmeal for the bath. Good also for deodorising niffy shoes; perfect combined with spearmint and tea tree for this purpose.
