📖 The Story Behind This Dish

Pohnpei gets a lot of rain, and citrus such as limes and tangerines grows well. At home, squeezed lime juice is mixed with sugar and water into a refreshing drink, served on hot days or to welcome guests at gatherings.

🌆 Where it's eaten: In a Pohnpei garden, limes are picked from the tree, squeezed in the kitchen, and poured into a pitcher.
