Ingredients
- 2 lemons washed and dried
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1 cup filtered water
- 1 cup ice cubes
- 1 to 2 tablespoons sweetened condensed milk to taste
Instructions
Prepare the Lemon Base
- Juice the lemons and remove any seeds. Cut the juiced lemon halves into small chunks. Place the lemon juice and lemon chunks into a quart-sized container with a secure lid. Add the granulated sugar.
Muddle the Mixture
- Using a muddler or wooden spoon, press the lemon chunks and sugar together until the sugar begins to dissolve and the lemons release additional oils and flavor.
Add Liquids and Ice
- Pour in the filtered water. Add the ice cubes. Stir in 1 to 2 tablespoons of sweetened condensed milk, adjusting the amount according to desired sweetness and creaminess.
Shake Thoroughly
- Seal the container with the lid. Shake vigorously until the sweetened condensed milk is fully blended and the lemonade becomes creamy and lightly frothy.
Serve Immediately
- Pour into a glass and enjoy at once for the best texture and flavor.
