Lemonade Ingredients
- ½ cup fresh lemon juice (about 4–5 medium lemons)
- ½ cup sweetened condensed milk
- 3 cups cold water
- Ice cubes, for serving
- Lemon slices, for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Juicing the Lemons: Juice the lemons to yield about ½ cup of fresh lemon juice. For a smoother drink, strain the juice to remove seeds and pulp if preferred.
- Blending Ingredients: In a blender, combine the fresh lemon juice, sweetened condensed milk, and cold water. Blend for 30–45 seconds until the mixture is smooth and slightly frothy, ensuring all ingredients are well incorporated.
- Adjusting the Flavor: Taste your lemonade and adjust the balance to your liking: add more lemon juice if the drink is too sweet, or more sweetened condensed milk if it tastes too tart.
- Serving: Pour the lemonade over ice cubes in glasses. Garnish with lemon slices or fresh mint for an elegant presentation and extra aroma if desired.
- Enjoy: Serve immediately while chilled for the most refreshing experience.
Notes
- Straining lemon juice is optional but helps create a smoother texture.
- Adjust sweetness and tartness according to personal preference by balancing condensed milk and lemon juice proportions.
- For a twist, add a few fresh mint leaves to the blender before blending.
- Use fresh lemons for the best flavor; bottled lemon juice may alter the taste.
