This is so tasty - a friend of mine gave me this recipe. Wild that is it called Lemonade as it is made with limes. It is refreshing and kinda frothy. You can also add vodka for an adult drink. We like to add vodka and put in the freezer for awhile then come back to slushy goodness.

Tips:
- Use fresh lemons: Freshly squeezed lemon juice has a brighter, more vibrant flavor than bottled or store-bought juice.
- Choose ripe lemons: Ripe lemons are more juicy and flavorful. Look for lemons that are deep yellow in color and feel heavy for their size.
- Garnish with fresh mint or basil: A sprig of fresh mint or basil adds a refreshing flavor and aroma to Brazilian lemonade.
- Serve chilled: Brazilian lemonade is best served chilled. You can chill it in the refrigerator for at least an hour before serving, or you can add ice cubes to each glass.
