When the heat of summer finally hits, I know it’s cordial time. Specifically, lime cordial, a tart and refreshing mixer that’s perfect for summertime sipping. Rose’s is the most well known brand of lime cordial, but this homemade version is even better, with a punchy lime flavor and a perfectly balanced sweetness.
This no-cook recipe is ridiculously easy, all you need is sugar, limes, and a little bit of time and patience and you’ll have the makings for one excellent cocktail: just add gin (or pisco, or rum, or club soda).
I first attempted making my own lime cordial because I wanted to make the perfect gin Gimlet.
There are lots of variations on the Gimlet floating around, some calling for fresh lime juice and simple syrup, which is a great combination, but should really be called a sour rather than a gimlet. Don’t get me wrong, I love sours (like this raspberry lime sour) but to make a proper gimlet, you really need lime cordial.
Most Gimlet recipes call for Rose’s Lime Cordial, a commercially available lime cordial that has artificial sweeteners and colors and a more processed lime flavor that I don’t love, so I figured, why not try to make my own?
I’ll tell you, once I tried my homemade lime cordial in a gimlet, I will never again buy the bottled stuff, especially considering just how easy it turned out to be to make myself.

No, this isn’t a recipe for how to warm up for exercise! A limber is a refreshing and delicious Puerto Rican frozen tropical fruit puree popsicle that you can make for next to nothing. Limbers are the perfect way to cool down on a sweltering hot day. And, trust me, island people know all about keeping things chill when temperatures hit the triple digits. This one will become a summer favorite!
Limbers are a popular frozen treat in always hot Puerto Rico. Tropical fruit purees or creamy milks are served in the small plastic cups they are frozen in. They’re named after the famous pilot Charles A. Lindbergh, who was obsessed with the icy fruit pops. My favorite flavor is mango, which is what we’re making today.
This recipe is ridiculously easy and has an incredibly simple ingredient list. The hardest thing about it is waiting for the pops to freeze! Here’s what you need to make Mango Limbers:
When mangoes are ripe they should be aromatic and have some give when you press a finger into the skin. For limbers, I prefer to use small champagne mangoes, also known as Ataúlfo, Adaulfo, young, baby, yellow, or honey mangoes. They aren’t as fibrous as other mangoes and have a naturally deeply sweet flavor.
Traditionally, limbers are frozen in small, usually 6-ounce, plastic cups. But single waste plastic isn’t our favorite at the Budget Bytes kitchen, so we used popsicle molds. You can use pretty much any squeezable freezer-safe container as your mold, and simply push the limber out once it;s frozen. If the limber is stuck in the container, just run warm water over the mold until the limber loosens.
If mango isn’t your thing, don’t miss out on this frozen treat! You can make it with almost any pureed fresh fruit or fruit juice and add sugar to taste. There are also creamy options. Try:
See how we calculate recipe costs here.
Slice around the seeds of the 4 mangoes by making two cuts through each mango from the stem to the tip. Each cut should be just off-center.
Use a large spoon to scoop out the mango flesh from each mango half. Rough chop the mango flesh.
Add the chopped mango, 1/2 cup water, and 3 tablespoons of sugar to a blender. Hold the seeds over the blender and run the spoon over the seeds to extract any extra flesh and juice. Optional: Add the juice of 1 lime and 1/8 teaspoon powdered ginger.
Blend until a smooth puree forms. It should have the consistency of ketchup. If necessary, add a touch more water to thin out the puree. You should have about 3 cups of puree.
Fill the ice pop molds, small freezer-safe glassware, or 6-ounce plastic cups, but not all the way up as the filling expands as it freezes.
Freeze for 6 hours. Make it easy to unmold by dipping them in warm water. And then enjoy the most refreshing thing you’ll have all day, guaranteed!
