Brazilian lemonade is one drink that you will want on your side this upcoming summer. It is creamy, refreshing, and super easy to make. Think about classic lemonade but with a sweeter and more complex flavor.

How to Make Brazilian Lemonade

Despite its name, Brazilian lemonade is actually made out of limes and not lemons. So, you’ll need limes, sweetened condensed milk, some ice, and a blender.

Start by washing five fresh limes and then cutting their tops off. Then, cut each into four wedges and put in a blender. Add four cups of water and blend for one minute. Make sure not to overdo it or the drink will turn out bitter.

Next, pour the lime water into a bowl through a strainer. The strainer will keep out the remains of pulp and skin, which is another crucial step in avoiding bitterness.

After that, rinse the blender and then pour the lime water back in. Add one can of sweetened condensed milk, and three cups of ice, and blend on high speed for one minute. Serve in a glass with an optional slice of lime as a garnish.
