For making a pitcher's worth of fresh citrus; works best with firm fruit. You'll be cutting the fruit, the goal being to take cut along the flesh/skin boundary, maybe taking a little flesh with each cut. Cut with the edge near the handle. Start by cutting off the ends of the fruit, then cut between the flesh and skin down the side. You'll end up with 6-8 cuts. Follow the body of the fruit out, then in. You'll usually end up with bits of skin at the bottom side. Cut and/or peel the bits left at the bottom.

Blend the limes with some water (24 oz per 10 large limes). Strain with a good stainless steel strainer into a medium bowl. Use a large rubber spatula to squeeze the juice out of the bits.
