Hey everyone,
Here is a recipe for the best lemonade ever. The original recipe calls for:
6 c. water
1 c. sugar
4 limes
6 Tbs. sweetened condensed milk
Ice cubes
You wash the limes, cut off the ends and then cut them into eighthes. Mix sugar and water together, place half the limes and half the sugar water into a blender and pulse about 4-5 times, then you strain that into a pitcher, repeat with the remaining limes and sugar water. Add the sweetened condensed milk and then adjust acourding to your own tastes. Add ice cubes.
I don't have a blender so I squeezed the juice from 6 limes and 3 lemons, and zested the peel from 2 limes and 1 lemon into the sugar water, let it sit a little while to let the peels give off some flavor, then I strained it and added the milk. It turned out great. I used more citrius then the recipe called for and I like how it tastes but if you do use the blender, the recipes says that you get more of the oils from the limes, not just the juice so you might not need extra.
Anyway I hope you all enjoy this.
