Creamy Lemon Drink (Print Version)
# Ingredients:
→ Liquids
01 -
700 ml of chilled water (still or sparkling)
02 -
300 g of sweetened condensed milk
03 -
240 ml of freshly squeezed lemon juice
→ Optional
04 -
500 g of ice cubes for serving
# Instructions:
01 -
Slice the lemons lengthwise into halves. Squeeze the juice using a juicer. If you're working with a hand-press, make sure to press into a bowl to catch every drop.
02 -
Pour the lemon juice and condensed milk into a blender. Blend quickly until they come together smoothly. If it looks a little separated at first, keep blending until the texture is creamy. You could also try using an immersion blender for this.
03 -
Pour in 700 ml of cold water and stir or blend for a second till it's all mixed evenly.
04 -
Put the creamy lemonade in the fridge until it's time to enjoy. Put some ice cubes or crushed ice into a glass, pour your lemonade on top, and serve right away. You can add lemon slices on the side if you like.
# Notes:
01 -
Fresh lemon juice tastes best, but bottled lemon juice can work if that's all you have.
02 -
For a lighter version, swap the condensed milk with 1/3 cup of white granulated sugar or simple syrup.
