Brazilian Lemonade with Coconut Milk
- 4 large limes
- 3 Tbsp condensed milk
- ¼ cup brown granulated sugar
- 1 cup coconut milk
- 4 cups water
- 1 cup ice
Instructions
Classic Brazilian Lemonade
- Wash the limes thoroughly to remove any residue, then cut them into chunks. If you prefer a smoother texture, juice the limes instead of using the whole fruit.
- Combine the lime chunks or juice with the water, sugar, and condensed milk in a pitcher. Whisk everything together until well combined.
- Pour the mixture through a sieve into a large jug to remove any pulp or lime pieces, leaving you with a smooth lemonade.
- Pour the lemonade into ice-filled glasses and serve immediately for a refreshing, creamy drink.
Brazilian Lemonade with Coconut Milk
- Cut the limes into chunks for a bold, zesty flavor, or juice them for a smoother texture.
- Add the limes (or lime juice), condensed milk, brown sugar, coconut milk, and water to a blender. Blend until smooth, then strain the mixture through a sieve to remove any pulp.
- Add the ice to the blender with the strained mixture and blend again until the drink becomes a uniform, semi-frozen slushy.
- Serve immediately while it’s icy and fresh. If you have leftovers, store the slushy in the freezer and re-blend before serving.
