Not T&T, but this looks good. I LOVE lime with nuts. Recent favorite is chili/lime almonds. Can't
stop eating the darn things. (see IMAGE link for the version I like)

I even jury-rigged a similar powder to put on popcorn:
Dried lime powder
Kosher salt
California chili powder
Black pepper
Grind together in the old coffee grinder.
Curious, for your peanuts, you'd probably need to adjust the salt in the linked recipe since yours is already lightly salted. I tried Paula Deen's Spicy Peanuts and found them a bit "boring" after the chili/lime almonds.
