Ingredients
- 4 whole Fresh limes
- 0.5 cup Sweetened condensed milk
- 0.25 cup Granulated sugar
- 4 cups Cold water
- 2 cups Ice cubes
Directions
Step 1
Wash the limes thoroughly to remove any residue or wax from the skin.
Step 2
Slice each lime into quarters, leaving the skin on.
Step 3
In a blender, combine the quartered limes, cold water, and granulated sugar.
Step 4
Pulse the blender 5-6 times for a couple of seconds each time. Avoid over-blending to prevent the lime rinds from making the drink bitter.
Step 5
Strain the liquid through a fine-mesh sieve into a large pitcher to remove the lime pulp and rind. Press gently with a spoon to extract maximum juice but avoid pressing too hard to keep the bitterness out.
Step 6
Add the sweetened condensed milk to the strained limeade and stir well until fully incorporated.
Step 7
Fill serving glasses with ice cubes and pour the limeade over the ice.
Step 8
Serve immediately and enjoy this creamy, refreshing drink!
