Garnish on a Moscow mule (4)

I believe the answer is:

lime

(Other definitions for lime that I've seen before include "White substance used in cement" , "Greene character?" , "Kind of tree or substance used in cement" , "Yellowish-green" , "Acid green fruit like a lemon" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
