I have a very productive Bearss lime tree that I adore. It was actually the first tree that I bought when we moved to our new home because I love using limes, and I cherish it's fruit! Additionally, I adore mint, so much so, that I grow over eight varieties. It is fun to actually utilize the "Mojito Mint" cultivar in this recipe! This recipe is a wonderful showcase of the freshness in the garden and friends and neighbors ask me time and time again to make these wonderful scones. I also took a note from the British Bake Off and made a version with Meyer's lemon and lemon thyme- it's subtle and fantastic. I just adore these scones! (Also, I have almost every oil and what not, but I don't have lime oil, but these still turn out superb :)
