Brazilian Lemonade

Brazilian Lemonade is a refreshing, creamy citrus drink made with fresh limes, sweetened condensed milk, sugar, and ice, popular in Brazil especially during the summer.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 fresh limes
  • 4 cups cold water
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
  • Ice cubes (as needed)

Instructions

  1. Wash the limes thoroughly and cut them into quarters.
  2. Place half the limes, 2 cups of water, and half the sugar in a blender. Blend for a few seconds (10-15 seconds).
  3. Strain the mixture through a fine mesh strainer into a pitcher, discarding the pulp.
  4. Repeat with the remaining limes, water, and sugar.
  5. Add the sweetened condensed milk to the pitcher and stir well.
  6. Add ice cubes to the pitcher or serve in glasses over ice.
  7. Serve immediately for the freshest taste.

Notes

  • Do not over-blend the limes to avoid bitterness from the rind.
  • Serve immediately after blending to prevent the drink from turning bitter.
  • You can adjust the sugar and condensed milk to your taste.
