Ingredients

  • Egyptian Mint Lemonade: 6 medium limes (sliced), 3 cups whole milk (optional), 1 cup cold water, 1 cup granulated sugar, 6 fresh mint leaves, Ice cubes

Instructions

  1. Egyptian Mint Lemonade: Blend sliced limes, milk (if using), water, sugar, and mint in a blender until just smooth. Strain to remove pulp and serve over ice.
  2. Brazilian Lemonade: Cut limes into eighths. Blend half the limes with half the sugar and water; pulse 5–7 times and strain. Repeat with remaining ingredients. Stir in condensed milk and serve over ice with lime slices.
  3. Colombian Coconut Limeade: Blend lime juice, coconut milk, sweetened condensed milk (or sugar), and ice until frothy. Add cold water if needed. Garnish with lime and shredded coconut.
  4. Pineapple Cream Limeade: Mix lime juice, sugar or condensed milk, and pineapple juice in a pitcher. Stir in water or soda water and milk/cream. Adjust sweetness and serve over ice.

Notes

  • Use oat or almond milk for dairy-free Egyptian version.
  • Replace half the coconut milk with coconut water for a lighter Colombian Limeade.
  • Use soda water for a bubbly Pineapple Cream Limeade.
  • For vegan versions, substitute with coconut condensed milk and plant-based milks.
  • Pulse citrus gently when blending to avoid bitterness.
