🌟 Pro Tips:

• Extra tangy? Use 100% Key lime juice (Nellie & Joe’s is classic!).
• No-bake magic: The lime juice thickens the filling naturally—no baking required!
• Make ahead? These keep for 3 days in the fridge.

💡 Fun Variations:

• Mango Twist: Layer mango purée under the filling.
• Boozy Upgrade: Add 1 tbsp tequila to the filling for a margarita vibe.
• Vegan? Use coconut condensed milk + dairy-free whipped cream.

These jars are zesty, creamy, and irresistibly cute—like a Florida vacation in a glass! 🏝️ Let me know if you want a larger pie version. 😊
