Ingredients

How to make it

  1. Blend whole limes (cut into wedges, skins on) with water, sugar (or syrup), and condensed milk.
  2. Strain carefully to remove pulp and skins.
  3. Serve over ice.

Tip: Blend in short bursts and stop as soon as it is smooth, so it stays thick.

About the Brazilian Lemonade

In Brazil it's called limonada suíça, 'Swiss lemonade', and it's made with whole limes: Brazilian Portuguese uses limão for both. Blending the peel adds bitterness that the condensed milk rounds off.

Missing something?

  • No Lime Juice? Use Lime (Squeeze fresh: 1 lime gives about 25 ml)
  • No Lime Juice? Use Lemon Juice (Softer, different aroma)
  • No Simple Syrup? Use Rich Simple Syrup (More concentrated, so use less)
  • No Simple Syrup? Use Sugar (1 tsp sugar is about 7.5 ml syrup; stir until dissolved)
  • No Condensed Milk? Use Cream (Add simple syrup to sweeten)
