The Best Brazilian Limeade Recipe

Hi again!  It’s Amber from rick•a•bam•boo.  Today I am here to share one of my favorite drinks with you.

My husband loves to eat at Brazilian grills, because, you know, all you can eat meat.  I also love to go to Brazilian grills because I know that I will be getting the best Brazilian limeade.

I am addicted to lime.  And lemon.  And orange.  Anything citrus really.  But lime is my most favorite.  It comes as no surprise then that I love Brazilian limeades.

So when I saw the Brazilian Lemonade recipe from Our Best Bites I was super excited.  Sometimes it is known as Brazilian lemonade.  In Brazil limes are called limons.  So even though it is called a lemonade it is still made with limes.

If you haven’t had a Brazilian limeade before then you are in for a real treat.  It is one of our favorite drinks to make at our house.  Thor calls it “Lemon-lime Egg Nog”.  Personally I think that name sounds gross.  We will definitely not be letting him name the drinks any time soon.

This does not keep well, due to the lime zest, which will make the drink bitter as it sits.  However if you want to make it ahead of time it is recommended that you juice the limes instead of blending.  I have not tried it this way, because I am too impatient.  When I make it I am going to drink it right now.

    I’m Brazilian, I live in Rio de Janeiro and I never saw this lemonade here! When we use the lime peel we call swiss lemonade (water, sugar and lime), but not everyone likes it (it’s very bitter). The normal version is just squeezed lime, water and sugar.
    I’m dying to try this version!

      Renata, if I’m not mistaken there’s also a little baking soda in swiss lemonade.

      But I’ve never seen this recipe in Brazil either… can’t wait to try it at home!

    Olá, eu sou Brasileira e ao contrário da Renata eu conheço e só tomo dessa limonada na minha casa.. Ela leva o nome de limonada suíça somente aqui no Brasil, ela na verdade é bem Brasileira e todo restaurante tem é só pedir. Debbie, para ela ficar melhor você tem que retirar a parte branca do meio do limão. abraços
