Finger limes, or “citrus caviar,” are small, native Australian citrus fruits known for their unique caviar-like pulp, which consists of tiny, juicy, popping pearls (vesicles) that burst with tart, refreshing lime flavor, offering a crisp texture and intense citrus kick, making them popular in gourmet dishes like sushi, seafood, and cocktails.

The average price for finger limes is quite high, ranging from roughly $15-$35 for 4-8 ounces (1/4 to 1/2 pound), with larger quantities like a full pound costing $60 or more, depending on the seller, organic status, and time of year; they are considered a specialty, luxury fruit due to high harvesting costs and delicate nature.
