Brazilian lemons look and taste more like
common limes, so this lemonade recipe does not call for lemons.
The touch of sweetened condensed milk gives this drink a rich,
subtle creaminess while the blender creates a frothy finish.
This refreshing cooler, ideal on a hot summer day, is best served
immediately as it becomes bitter tasting when made ahead of time.
Brazilian
Lemonade
- 4 fresh limes, washed
thoroughly
6 cups water - divided use
1 cup granulated sugar - divided use
1/2 cup NESTLÉ® CARNATION® Sweetened Condensed
Milk - divided use
14 ice cubes (1 tray) - divided use, plus more for serving
- Cut off ends of each lime
and cut each into 8 wedges. Place 16 wedges, 3 cups water, 1/2
cup sugar, 1/4 cup sweetened condensed milk and 7 ice cubes in
blender. Cover; blend for 20 seconds. (Blending longer will cause
drink to become bitter.)

mesh strainer into pitcher to remove rinds.

ingredients.

over ice cubes or crushed ice.
Makes 8 (1 cup) servings.
