Ingredients

Main Ingredients

▢ 0.9 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice from about 6–7 lemons
▢ 13 oz sweetened condensed milk
▢ 4.5 cup cold water
▢ 2 tbsp granulated sugar add more to taste
▢ 0.5 tsp vanilla extract optional, for roundness
▢ 0.125 tsp fine sea salt just a pinch to balance acidity
▢ 3 cup ice cubes for serving

Instructions

Preparation Steps

Whisk lemon juice, sugar, and salt in a large pitcher until the sugar dissolves.
Stream in the sweetened condensed milk while whisking until smooth and creamy.
Pour in the cold water and stir to fully combine.
Stir in vanilla. Taste and adjust sweetness or tartness to your liking.
Fill glasses with ice and pour over the creamy lemonade. Serve right away or chill 10 minutes.

Notes

Variation: Swap half of the water for chilled sparkling water for a fizzy finish, or use coconut sweetened condensed milk for a tropical twist. Storage: Keep refrigerated up to 2 days and stir before serving, as light separation is normal.
