Heat up your limes before juicing? - Tiki Drinks and Food

Seems like an evening of cocktailing can't start until I have plenty of fresh lime juice on hand (for Daquiris, Margaritas, Vodka Blushes, etc.). I have the citrus juicer attachment for the KitchenAid mixer and that's OK, but it seems like the easiest thing to do is just to cut the little green buggers in half and use the wooden citrus pestle-thing over a bowl. I wish fresh, pulpy lime juice came in a nice container in the refrigerated section of the supermarket like Tropicana Orange Juice does -- it would makes things much easier. Every bottled lime juice I've tried -- even those 'spensive Key Lime juices -- are just kinda nasty. Your thoughts?
