Ingredients:

  • 4 medium limes, washed and cut into eighths
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup water
  • 1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
  • Ice cubes for serving
  • Optional garnish: Lime wedges or mint leaves

Instructions:

  1. Wash and quarter the limes.
  2. In a blender, combine the lime wedges, granulated sugar, and water. Blend on high until the limes are completely broken down, about 30 seconds.
  3. Pour the blended mixture through a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth into a large pitcher, pressing to extract as much liquid as possible.
  4. Stir in the sweetened condensed milk until fully incorporated.
  5. Fill glasses with ice cubes and pour the Brazilian lemonade over the ice. Garnish with lime wedges or mint leaves if desired.
