📝 Preparation Steps
1
Wash the limes thoroughly. Cut off the ends and slice in half—quarter each half to create 1/8ths.
2
Add half of the water, half of the sugar, and half of the limes to a blender, then pulse 5-7 times to partially break up the limes. Don’t over-pulse, or the drink will be bitter.

3
Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a pitcher, then use a spoon to press the lime pulp and extract as much juice/flavor as possible. Discard the skins and pulp. Repeat the process with the remaining water, sugar, and limes.

4
Add the sweetened condensed milk and whisk vigorously until frothy. If the lemonade is too tart (due to pith/bitter limes), you may need to add extra sugar or milk. Conversely, if it’s too sweet, stir in additional lime juice or zest.
5
Serve immediately by pouring into glasses with ice. Don’t add ice directly to the pitcher; it will dilute the flavor. The longer the Lemonade sits and the limes break down, the more bitter it will become, so it's best to serve it immediately (or within a couple hours if needed).
