In Brazil, this refreshing drink is called limonada suíça, which is Portuguese for Swiss lemonade.
was what initially brought this Brazilian drink into the limelight on social media. Since then, folks have been recreating the drink at home with tons of positive feedback, including proud Brazilians sharing their personal ties to the drink, with comments along the lines of “growing up in Brazil, this was always the best afternoon treat.”
To make it, Gelen starts by slicing five cleaned limes into quarters and adding them to a blender. Then, she adds enough water to cover the lime wedges and blends them together. Pro tip: Gelen cautions against over-blending it, which can result in bitterness from over-extracting the naringin, a flavonoid found in the peel, pith, and membranes of limes that can impart a bitter flavor. That said, to share the two sides of the same coin, research shows that naringin has.
Moving on. Once the mixture is blended, Gelen strains it using a fine-mesh sieve to remove the lime peels. In the empty blender, she adds the lime water, a can of sweetened condensed milk, and a quart container’s worth of ice cubes. Gelen blends the mixture until completely smooth and milky. The result is a super-hydrating, tangy, and sweet beverage packed with potassium, folate, calcium, thiamin, niacin, and vitamin B6, in addition to vitamin C .
That said, although the drink tastes great according to Gelen’s recipe, some folks have offered their own suggestions. According to TikTok user, they say “I’m Brazilian, and my dad used to do that at home a lot, to better results take the skin off.” Other folks claim that using only a little zest along with peeled limes is undoubtedly the way to go. Meanwhile, some have swapped out the sweetened condensed milk with sweetened coconut condensed milk for a delicious vegan version.
