Brazilian Limeade

Brazilian Limeade

2 whole limes
3 cups cold water
¾ cup sugar
2 trays or approximately 32 ice cubes

Place whole limes in a blender and process for about 3 seconds—just until both limes have been cut open. The first lime to split will most likely be very roughly chopped; stop processing as soon as the second one is opened. Processing too long will cause the limeade to be bitter.

Add the water to the blender and then strain the lime water into a bowl with a fine sieve. Discard solids and rinse blender. Dissolve sugar in lime water and return to the blender.

Add ice and process on high speed until smooth. Serve immediately. Limeade will become bitter if allowed to stand before serving.
