Directions
Crush the limes with a pestle in a mortar until the pieces are small and a bit like little stones. Pour the crushed lime and water into a saucepan and bring it to a boil over medium-high heat. Once it’s boiling, turn the heat down and let it simmer gently for about 5 minutes. After that, strain the mixture into four tea cups. Add honey to taste, and enjoy it either warm or chilled—whichever you prefer!
