Ingredients
  

  • 2 large limes quartered
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 4 cups cold water
  • 1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
  • Ice cubes
  • Fresh mint leaves for garnish optional

Instructions
 

  • In a blender, combine the quartered limes and sugar. Pulse a few times to release the lime juice, but do not blend completely into a puree.
  • Add the cold water to the blender and blend on high for about 30 seconds.
  • Strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve into a large pitcher, discarding the solids.
  • Stir in the sweetened condensed milk until well combined.
  • Serve over ice cubes and garnish with fresh mint leaves if desired.

Notes

  • For a creamier texture, blend in an additional 1/4 cup of sweetened condensed milk.
  • Try adding a splash of coconut milk for a tropical twist.
