🍋 Brazilian Lemonade (Brazilian Limeade) Recipe

A refreshing, creamy, sweet-tart Brazilian drink made with whole limes, sugar, water, and sweetened condensed milk. Perfect for summer, parties, and BBQs.

⭐ Ingredients

  • 4 fresh limes (washed well)
  • 4 cups cold water
  • ½ cup sugar
  • 3–4 tbsp sweetened condensed milk (adjust to taste)
  • Ice cubes
  • Lime slices (for serving)

🥤 Instructions

1. Prep the Limes

  • Wash limes thoroughly to remove surface bitterness.
  • Cut each lime into 8 pieces.

2. Blend

  • Add limes, cold water, and sugar to a blender.
  • Blend for only 10–15 seconds (do NOT over-blend; it makes the drink bitter).

3. Strain

  • Pour mixture through a fine strainer into a jug.
  • Press with a spoon to extract liquid.

4. Add Condensed Milk

  • Stir in the sweetened condensed milk until creamy and well mixed.

5. Serve

  • Fill glasses with ice cubes.
  • Pour Brazilian lemonade over the ice.
  • Garnish with lime slices.

🌿 Serving Suggestions 

  1. Serve with BBQ dishes
    Perfect with grilled chicken, beef skewers, or summer BBQs.

  2. Pair with Brazilian dishes
    Serve with feijoada, pão de queijo, or Brazilian beef.

  3. Make it fizzy
    Add sparkling water or soda water for a sparkling version.

  4. Make a frozen Brazilian lemonade
    Blend with more ice for a slushy texture.

  5. Turn it into a cocktail
    Add a splash of rum, vodka, or cachaça for an adult version.

❓ FAQs

1. Why is it called Brazilian lemonade if it uses limes?

In Brazil, limes are often referred to as “lemons,” so the name translates literally.

2. Can I make it without condensed milk?

Yes, use sugar or a splash of cream instead, but condensed milk gives the signature flavor.

3. How do I prevent bitterness?

Blend only for a few seconds and use fresh limes — old limes have bitter rinds.

4. Can I store it?

It’s best fresh, but you can refrigerate it for 6–8 hours.
It may separate slightly — just stir before serving.

5. Can I make it ahead for parties?

Yes! Mix everything except the condensed milk.
Add condensed milk right before serving.
