  1. Made as described and served over ice after sieving.<br/>This is very simillar to the Malasian "air limau", but the addition of condensed milk is very new for me. I like this recipe because the smell of the citrus in the zest will not be lost.<br/>Thanks a lot for this refreshing drink.<br/>Mader for Culinary Quest 2014
     
  2. We love this!! Don't laugh too hard...I scribbled down rough instructions...I trimmed the limes & dropped them in & pureed the whole thing for a few minutes then strained. So I skipped a few steps - oh well! This is really good, refreshing & LIME-Y! No need to worry about it sitting because we drank it up quick! I might make more today... Made for Culinary Quest 2014/CCQ :)
     
  3. Weirdly delicious! Kinda like a creamsicle. I understand the comment about serving it up fast, it does start to curdle (acid turning milk to curds) if it sits around too long. Don't worry - it's easy to drink fast! :-)
     
  4. Yummm. I love limes and lemonade and this wonderful recipe, does not disappoint. What a lovely pale color the lemonade is....with an incredible subtle lime flavor. Perfectly sweetened, not overly tart or overly sweet, so very easy to drink. I think it would be a wonderful cocktail with a little vodka or rum. So quick and easy to make, I will be enjoying this lovely treat all summer. Thank you so much for sharing my friend. Made for June Aussie Swap.
