This received mixed reviews from my diners, but I think a great deal of that might be influenced by how the cream is used. I served atop (unsweetened) sliced strawberries and angel food cake. The whipped cream was noticeably tart, but had a nice crisp flavor. I feel the lime spiked flavor would be a nice contrast with a sweeter dessert or complement something like key lime pie. I didn't use the optional lemon balm. Thank you for sharing the recipe! Made for Spring 2012 Pick A Chef. :-) -
It was great with pancakes and strawberry puree. But we found that it was a little bit too much lime juice. Next time I'll use half. Thanks Stormylee :) Made for PAC spring 2011
