Brazilian Limeade

This is the best limeade EVER! Seriously, wow. It is so cool and refreshing. Find an excuse to make this before the cool weather sets in! My friend, Brenda, brought this to a get-together we had with a bunch of our friends a few years ago, and now it's a delicious favorite! Hope you enjoy it too!

2 limes

½ c. sugar

3 T. sweetened condensed milk

3 c. water

4-5 strawberries (fresh or frozen)

4-5 mango pieces (if frozen, thaw slightly in microwave)

Ice

Wash limes and cut off ends. Slice into quarters. Put limes (with peel still on), sugar, milk, water, strawberries and mango in blender or smoothie maker. If you have room, you can add ice, or just serve over ice. Pulse the blender (do not blend) until the chunks are about dime size. Strain juice into a pitcher and throw away chunks. Slice a lime and let float on top.
(Variation: double everything except sugar. I haven't tried this variation.)

  1. Looks great. I wonder if it would taste good with a shot of vodka ;)

  2. I have a version of Brazillian lemonade that I have been meaning to try... but mine doesn't ahve the mangos and strawberries in it. I bet they make it fabulous! I'm excited to try yours, sis.
