Creamy Brazilian Lemonade

No reviews

Brazilian Lemonade is a creamy, refreshing lime-based drink made with whole limes, sweetened condensed milk, sugar, and water. Despite its name, it uses limes, not lemons, and delivers a sweet-tart flavor perfect for warm days.

  • Total Time: 5 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 2 fresh limes (thin-skinned, washed and cut into eighths)
  • 1/4 cup sugar (adjust to taste)
  • 2 tablespoons sweetened condensed milk
  • 3 to 4 cups cold water
  • Ice, for serving
  • Lime slices or mint, for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Wash limes thoroughly and cut them into eighths.
  2. Place the lime pieces, sugar, sweetened condensed milk, and cold water into a blender.
  3. Pulse 4–6 times until just combined; avoid over-blending to prevent bitterness.
  4. Pour the mixture through a fine mesh strainer into a pitcher, pressing the pulp to extract more liquid.
  5. Discard the solids and serve the lemonade immediately over ice.
  6. Garnish with lime slices or mint if desired.

Notes

  • Use fresh, thin-skinned limes for the best flavor and minimal bitterness.
  • Do not over-blend; too much blending can cause bitterness from the peel.
  • Strain thoroughly for a smooth, creamy texture.
  • Best served fresh, as the drink can become bitter if stored too long.
  • You can customize with fruits like strawberries or mango, or herbs like mint for added flavor.
