Preparation Steps
1
Thoroughly wash the limes and slice them thinly or into wedges, including the peel.
2
Select a clean canning jar and place the lime slices inside.
3
In a saucepan, bring the water, vinegar, honey, brown sugar, salt, cinnamon stick, cloves, bay leaves, black peppercorns, and mustard seeds to a boil.
4
Once the brine has boiled, let it cool slightly so it's not too hot when poured over the limes.
5
Pour the cooled brine over the limes, ensuring they are completely submerged.
6
Seal the jar and let it mature in the refrigerator for at least 24 hours, but the longer it sits, the more flavorful it will become.
7
Before serving, let it sit at room temperature for 10 minutes to allow the flavors to fully develop.
