Notes

Use a mix of limes for a more complex flavor. A combination of Persian and Key limes works wonders.
This drink is best served right after making for optimal freshness and frothiness. If there are leftovers, store them in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
Feel free to experiment with varying the sweetness by adjusting the sugar or condensed milk to your taste.
For a twist, consider adding fresh strawberries, coconut water, mint leaves, or a splash of soda for a fizzy version!
