Super Special Lemonade

Super Special Lemonade

Make some Super Special Lemonade by adding sweetened condensed milk to fresh squeezed lemon juice. This produces a perfectly sweet lemonade. This lemonade is super drinkable due to the slightly creamy taste of this thirst quenching drink. Having always been a fan of lemonade but not a fan of the overly sour flavor, this is the perfect solution to that problem. The full, printable recipe is at the bottom of this post I will just share a few fun facts and tips if you care to read.

Brazilian Lemonade

I found out about this recipe from perusing my PInterest page. I made a version of the recipes I found and posted it to my Instagram. There is a similar drink in Brazil made with limes according to my Instagram followers. Here is another great lemonade recipe made with limes from the Brazilian Kitchen Abroad Blog. Thinking ahead, I will try to make this one as well, it looks so refreshing and delicious.

Spice Things Up

Additionally, you can make this drink into a happy hour favorite by adding your favorite libation. This drink will be a great grown up cocktail with the addition of a coconut rum, a flavored vodka or even a mild whiskey. I was even thinking that this would make a wonderful punch for a party both alcoholic and non alcoholic.
