- 4 cups ice cubes ($0.00)
- 2 cups water ($0.00)
Instructions
- Combine base. Add the sweetened condensed milk to the bottom of a large pitcher, then pour in the lemon juice and whisk well, making sure to scrape the sides of the pitcher.

Notes
- Substitutions. Condensed coconut milk or full fat coconut milk can be used for a dairy free version.
- Recipe Tips. Use sweetened condensed milk, not evaporated milk. For a sweeter drink, add ¼ to ½ cup granulated sugar. To get more juice from fresh lemons, microwave for 10 to 30 seconds and roll before slicing. Lemon concentrate can be used to boost lemon flavor.
- Storage. Refrigerate for up to 2 to 3 days and stir before serving if separation occurs.
