Brazilian Limeade Brilliant Update

The other day, Mel's posted about Brazilian Limeade. I was like woah she's behind. That was all up on Best Bites forever ago. However she did a few things different and added a step that made it incredible!

Instead of just throwing the limes in the blender, she juiced 3 limes. Then threw 2 of limes' rinds in the blender with 2 cups of water. Blend blend blend. Then strain that a bowl, add the juice. Then pour that lime juice/ water mixture, another cup of cold water, 4 tablespoons sweetened condensed milk, and 1/2 cup sugar Back in the blender and add.... Wait for it. ICE! 2-3 cups ice! Blend it a little and you have foamy, cold, little pieces of ice deliciousness. It was incredible. And easier.

Now if you're like me and don't have a Blendtec... Or any blender. And your KitchenAid food processor sprays liquid all over if it's too liquidy and all you have is a fake magic bullet. Have no fear!

Use the fake magic bullet to blend the limes up. Mix/ whisk everything, minus the ice, into a bowl. Put 6-7 pieces of ice into the cup add the limeade mixture to the full point. Blend for a second and it's ready!

Seriously, so much better this way.
