I love the uniqueness of Brazilian Lemonade, but to make a whole pitcher can be a bit much. Authentic Brazilian Lemonade is made by pulsing the whole lime and then straining. It does not store well, because it turns bitter the longer it sits. Since I am the main drinker of this summery drink, it was a bit foolish of me to make a whole pitcher and then gorge myself on it. So, I came up with a simple substitute that suits me just fine.
2 Tablespoons fresh squeezed lime juice (or from concentrate)
1 Tablespoon fresh squeezed lemon juice (or from concentrate)
1 teaspoon sugar
2 Tablespoon sweetened condensed milk
10 ounces cold water
4 ice cubes
Add juices, sugar and sweetened condensed milk into a large glass. Add half of the water and stir until well combined. Add remaining water and ice. Garnish with fresh berries if desired.
