While the crust is baking, mix up the filling. Whip the egg yolks with the lime zest for about 5 minutes or until the egg yolks are creamy and fluffy. Add in the sweetened condensed milk and whip for another 5 minutes.

Juice your limes with a citrus juicer. I picked up mine a few years back, but there are lots to choose from on Amazon. You can find one that can fit all the different citrus fruit sizes and is able to express a lot of juice with the electric reamer like a Dash Go Dual Citrus Juicer.聽Finally, pour in the lime juice and stir until just blended.
