“My husband had this lemonade at a Brazilian restaurant and loved it so much, he asked for the recipe, which we’ve ‘perfected’ over time,” says Kelley Gee.

How to Make It

Step 1
1

Place all the ingredients in a blender. Add 4 cups cold water and blend on high speed until limes are slightly chopped. Strain into a pitcher and then, with the strainer still resting above the pitcher, slowly pour about 1 more cup water (depending on how sweet you want the drink) through the strainer over the lime pieces to extract all the residual sugar and juice.
