Ingredients

  • 4 medium limes
  • 1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 8 cups water

Instructions

  • Peel 3 of the limes, ensuring to remove as much of the white pith as possible to reduce bitterness. Leave 1 lime unpeeled.
  • Place the limes, sweetened condensed milk, sugar, and water into a blender.
  • Pulse the mixture 4–6 times. Avoid over-blending to prevent bitterness.
  • Use a fine mesh strainer to strain the mixture into a pitcher, pressing gently with a spoon to extract the liquid while discarding the pulp and lime skin.
  • Taste and add more sugar if necessary to balance out any bitterness. Add ice to the pitcher. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Notes

  • This is best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in the fridge for up to 24 hours.
  • Mocktail Vibes: Swap out half of the water for sparkling water or club soda.
  • Cocktail Version: Add a splash of white rum, vodka, or tequila. Start with 1 ounce per glass, taste, and adjust as needed.
