Description
A vibrant and hydrating Watermelon Brazilian Lemonade blending fresh limes, juicy watermelon chunks, and sweetened condensed milk for a perfectly sweet and creamy summer drink.
Ingredients
3 medium limes, washed and quartered
2 cups fresh watermelon chunks, seedless
3 cups cold water
1/2 can (7 oz) sweetened condensed milk
2 cups ice cubes
Instructions
1. Add the quartered limes and cold water to a blender.
2. Pulse the mixture for 10 to 15 seconds to extract the lime juice without making it bitter.
3. Strain the liquid through a fine-mesh sieve into a large pitcher and discard the leftover lime solids.
4. Return the strained lime water to the blender.
5. Add the watermelon chunks, sweetened condensed milk, and ice cubes.
6. Blend on high until smooth, frothy, and beautifully pink, then serve immediately in chilled glasses.
Notes
Do not over-blend the limes in the first step to prevent the white pith from turning the drink bitter.
Use frozen watermelon chunks for an extra frosty, slushie-like texture.
Watermelon holds a lot of water, so we reduce the added water slightly to keep the flavor bold and creamy.
Serve immediately over ice, as the drink can separate and turn bitter if stored.
