  • One metric tablespoon of lime juice weighs about 14.9 grams. A US tablespoon (14.79 ml) holds about 14.7 grams and an Australian tablespoon (20 ml) about 19.8 grams.

Lime juice is a sharp, aromatic citrus liquid used in marinades, cocktails, dressings, and tropical baking. It activates baking soda, balances rich foods like avocado and coconut, and brings the floral edge that lemon juice does not. One metric cup (250 ml) holds 248 g (8.75 oz).

Lime juice is a touch more acidic than lemon juice, so getting the amount right matters in chemistry-driven recipes like quick breads and curds. Measuring by weight rather than volume keeps marinades, cocktail syrups, and ceviche consistent across batches.
