A ripe key lime is typically smaller than a regular lime, about 1 to 2 inches in diameter, and has a slightly yellow-green color, indicating sweetness. When you gently squeeze it, a ripe key lime should feel slightly soft but not mushy. Additionally, it should have a fragrant aroma, suggesting it's ready for use. If the skin is shiny and smooth, that's another sign of ripeness.

The Key lime (Citrus aurantifolia (Christmas) Swingle) is a citrus species with a globose fruit, 2.5-5 cm in diameter (1-2 in), that is yellow when ripe but usually picked green commercially. It is smaller, seedier, has a higher acidity, a stronger aroma, and a thinner rind than that of the Persian lime (Citrus x latifolia). It is valued for its unique flavor compared to other limes, with the key lime usually having a more tart and bitter flavor. The name comes from its association with the Florida Keys, where it is best known as the flavoring ingredient in key lime pie. It is also known as West Indian lime, Bartender's lime, Omani lime, Tahitian lime or Mexican lime, the latter classified as a distinct race with a thicker skin and darker green color
