Description

A creamy, citrusy twist on classic lemonade made with whole limes and sweetened condensed milk. This Brazilian favorite is frothy, refreshing, and full of tropical flavor.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 medium fresh limes, quartered
  • ½ cup sweetened condensed milk
  • 4 cups cold water
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 cups ice cubes


Instructions

  1. Prepare your blender by ensuring it is clean and ready for use.
  2. Place the quartered limes, cold water, sweetened condensed milk, and sugar into the blender.
  3. Blend on high speed for about 10 seconds. Do not over-blend to avoid bitterness.
  4. Strain the mixture through a fine mesh strainer into a large bowl or pitcher to remove pulp and rind bits.
  5. Stir well to combine and ensure a smooth texture.
  6. Fill serving glasses with ice and pour the strained lemonade over the top.
  7. Garnish with lime slices if desired and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Use thin-skinned limes to reduce bitterness.
  • For a vegan option, substitute with coconut condensed milk.
  • Always strain the drink to achieve the best texture.
  • Chill serving glasses for an extra refreshing experience.
