Lime

The Lime Emoji 🍋‍🟩 shows a lively green lime with a characteristic oblong shape, resembling its lemon cousin but wearing a distinctly brighter green, often accented by a fresh leafy top.

It's a favorite for chats about refreshing drinks (hello, mojito), zesty recipes, or to add a tropical twist; its sharp tang is also a symbol for sass and punchy remarks in digital banter.

This emoji is a newer addition, created as a ZWJ sequence that combines the lemon with a green square to craft a proper lime—the easiest way to clarify you want the green kind of citrus in your text (after years of lemon-lime confusion, they finally got separate seats).

Type in "lime," "green lemon," "citrus," or "margarita" and you'll spot it—drink garnish not included.
