Yes, most definitely. There will be a small taste difference detectable by those with more discerning palates. The pH of all limes is approx. 2.0- 2.4, so if the recipe depends on the lime juice to coagulate milk, as in making fresh cheeses or ice-box pies, any lime juice will suffice nicely. Bottled lime juice works just fine also. The zest varies little between Key limes and other limes. The Key lime is a variety of limes and is not common in supermarkets except in areas where it is grown because it does not ship well. The variety most common in supermarkets is the Persian lime because it ships well. It has a thicker pith, the area between the rind and fruit flesh, than the Key lime. All varieties of limes are yellow when they are mature. We prefer the taste of immature limes, i.e. just before they begin to ripen and turn yellow. That is why we think of limes as a green colored fruit.
