The limes make this fresh and flavorful, the sugar is in perfect balance with the limes, and the sweetened condensed milk adds a delicious creamy taste. This is another recipe by Janet Athay that you will love!

Quarter four limes. |
Place them in a blender along with the sugar and 2 c water. |
Pulse the blender up to 4 times. The limes should be mostly intact after they are processed. |
Pour 4 more cups or water over the limes. This cleans any extra sugar left behind on the limes. |
Lift the colander and discard the limes. Pour the mixture into a pitcher. |
Add the sweetened condensed milk. Add up to 2 more cups of water depending on your preference of strength. I like to add 2 cups of ice and no extra water. Stir until the sugar is completely dissolved. |
Serve immediately for best taste or up to two hours later. |

Problems
The biggest problem in making this is over-processing the limes. It will make the limeade very bitter and it will not taste fresh. It will seem like you are under-processing the limes, but you will get plenty of taste from very little processing because the lime rind adds a lot of flavor.

Variations Lemons are great in the recipe as well. A mixture of lemons and limes is also good. Adding fresh raspberries or fresh sliced strawberries at the end is a great twist on the flavor. Fresh sliced lemons and limes also add great taste and make it look delicious. |
