For a more intense lime flavor, use freshly squeezed Key lime juice. Bottled juice can sometimes have a slightly different taste.
Make sure your heavy cream is very cold for the best results when beating the filling.
If you don't have Key limes, regular lime juice works well as a substitute. The flavor will be slightly different, but still delicious.
