Recipe View 2 mins Serve immediately over ice in tall glasses. Garnish with a lime wedge or a sprig of mint, if desired. (2 minutes)

For a tangier lemonade, use slightly less sugar. If you prefer a sweeter drink, add a little more sweetened condensed milk or sugar to taste.
Using chilled water and serving immediately helps to prevent the lemonade from becoming too bitter.
Feel free to experiment with different sweeteners like agave nectar or honey. Adjust the amount to your personal preference.
For a fun variation, try adding a splash of coconut milk or a few fresh mint leaves to the blender.

    I was skeptical about using the whole lime, but the straining trick really works! It's perfectly smooth and creamy.

    My kids absolutely love this lemonade. It's a great way to get them to drink more water!

  • Jeff Kovacek

    I found that letting the blended mixture sit for a few minutes before straining helps to mellow the flavor a bit.

  • Odell Sawayn

    I tried it with honey instead of sugar and it was delicious! Thanks for the tip!
