Absolutely not. You could pull a muscle doing that. Don't squeeze the cans either. And remember, people: key lime juice is not a substitute for lime juice. The two have completely different flavors and can rarely play the other's role. Look in our recent big Mai Tai thread. Someone made a Mai Tai with key lime juice and it was horrible! I've made a number of drinks with key lime juice and they've all been wonderful. Order a drink at the Mai Kai with lime juice in it and it will be key lime juice. Leroy Schmaltz makes his Mai Tais with key lime juice. Need I go on? :wink:
