Personaly. I find that desserts with a tang are especially nice in warmer weather. The Colombian esponjado is excellent because because it can be made with a variety of fruits to change the flavors to your liking . This lime esponjado is a wonderful ending to any meal. Enjoy.

3/4 cup lime juice |
1 (14 ounce) can condensed milk |
1/3 cup water |
1 tablespoon unflavored gelatin |

1. In a small pot add the water and gelatin. Over medium heat let it cook for about 2 minutes or until the gelatin dissolves.
