I've heard bad reviews about the citrus squeezers, which is why I have gone the bottled juice route (bottled, but bear in mind that it's fresh-squeezed with no preservatives). Anyway, I'll give the squeezer a try based on the recommendations.

But I'm sticking with the bottled stuff for mass-made party mai tais. Squeezing and bottles may be equally inconvenient on a one-drink level, but making a pitcher of the stuff for a big party (where the guests will be helping themselves to drinks, so making each from scratch is out of the question) is much easier with bottled juice. And, if you use the bottled stuff the day you buy it, it honestly tastes just as good as if you squeezed the limes yourself. Trust me on this - I've done the blind taste test.
