I'd just do the same as for limoncello - maybe add some citric acid ("sour salt" in your grocery's Kosher aisle) as limes aren't quite as acidic as lemons or you could tweak the sugar/syrup to balance. Once I get your address I'll be by soon regardless - I'm sure it'll be good.
Also, lime marmalade for gifts. Salted limes/lime pickle as is done for Indian food. Dried lime slices for fancy cocktail garnishes are also a gift idea if you have cocktologists in your circle.
I feel your pain - here in the high desert we get late killing frosts half of the years, the other half we get five families' worth of apricots from our two trees. Had a big haul this summer and I'm sure there still are 2020-vintage apricots at the bottom of the freezer. We turned into the Gump of apricots....
