→ Main Ingredients
01 -
Ice cubes for chilling
02 -
60 millilitres sweetened condensed milk, more if you like it sweeter
03 -
100 grams white sugar
04 -
5 whole limes, sliced into wedges, skins left on
05 -
1.4 litres cold, filtered water
# Steps:
01 -
Drop plenty of ice cubes into your glasses. Pour the creamy lime mix right on top. Add a lime wedge for extra flair if you want.
02 -
Give the blender a quick rinse. Pour back in the strained lime juice, toss in the sweetened condensed milk, and blend until it's smooth and a bit foamy.
03 -
Slowly strain everything you just blended into a big bowl using a fine strainer. Let the juice drip through, then throw out all the bits that are left behind.
04 -
Toss the lime wedges, sugar, and cold water into a blender. Run it until it's all mixed up and the limes are in tiny pieces.
# Notes:
01 -
Stick with filtered water so your drink tastes fresh and clean.
02 -
Blending whole limes, including the skin, gives the real deal flavor. Just strain it well so it doesn't get too bitter.
