The Lime Pocket Allows You to Spritz Juice Without Getting Sticky Fingers
Amelia Roblin — December 13, 2013 — Art & Design
A cocktail party is generally a classy affair, and you'll want to keep clean hands for a number of reasons. The Lime Pocket is a clever little culinary implement that prevents those frustratingly sticky fingers that you get when you go to spritz your drink.
Designed by Nendo, the product has been made from thin and highly flexible silicone material, molded loosely to the shape of a single slice of a citrus fruit. A full set of Lime Pockets can be combined to create a complete sphere. The shape is perfect for inserting a lime or a small lemon or orange wedge inside, enabling you to hold it without having to touch the succulent edible. With the Lime Pocket on, you can squeeze a few sour drops into your drink and then slot it over the rim of the glass.
