Not to beat a dead fruit, but I take it there are times when the limes taste better? Next weekend I was gonna try going lighter on the lime juice, and maybe mail ordering some of the Trader Vic's Rock Candy syrup instead of the instant dissolving sugar, thinking this might take the edge off of the citric acid - ? stay'n on Mai Tai, J$
