  • 0.5 can Sweetened condensed milk
  • 2 cups Ice cubes

Equipment

  • Blender
  • Fine-mesh sieve
  • Pitcher

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Wash and quarter the limes, removing any tough ends or visible seeds.
  2. Blend the quartered limes with 2 cups of cold water until fully broken down, about 30-60 seconds.
  3. Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a pitcher, pressing to extract all liquid, then discard the pulp.
Final Blend
  1. Return the strained liquid to the blender, then add the remaining 2 cups of cold water, sweetened condensed milk, and ice cubes.
  2. Blend until the ice is crushed and the mixture is smooth and frothy, typically for 30 seconds to 1 minute.
Serve
  1. Taste and adjust sweetness if desired, then pour into glasses and serve immediately.

Notes

For a stronger lime flavor, briefly soak quartered limes in hot water before blending. Always use cold water for the final blend for a refreshing drink.
