Ingredients
– 4 juicy ones limes Main flavor and nutrition source
– 6 cups water To hydrate and balance the drink
– 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar Sweetens the mixture
– 6 tablespoons sweetened condensed milk Adds creaminess
Instructions
1-Making this how to make Brazilian limeade with condensed milk is simpler than you might think, and it only takes about 5 minutes from start to finish. Begin by washing the limes thoroughly to remove any pesticides or wax, then slice off the ends and cut them into eighths for easy blending. This step ensures your drink is fresh and flavorful without any unwanted extras.
2-Next, in a blender, combine half the limes with half the water (3 cups) and half the sugar (0.5 cup or 100g), then pulse 5-7 times to mix without fully pulverizing the ingredients. Strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve, pressing the pulp to release all the juices, and discard the pulp and skins. Repeat the process with the remaining limes, water, and sugar to complete the base.
3-Once blended and strained, stir in the 6 tablespoons of sweetened condensed milk to add that creamy touch, then add ice for a chilled effect. Serve it up garnished with lime slices, and feel free to adjust the sweetness with more milk or sugar as needed.
