In a blender, add the sugar, condensed milk, lemon, ice, and cold water.
Blend the ingredients for about 15 seconds, pulsing in 3-second intervals, or until well combined. Be cautious not to blend for too long as it can make the drink bitter.

Serve the Limonada in glasses filled with ice.

Notes
Blend the mixture for no more than 15 seconds or blitz it at 3-second intervals rather than continuously blending. The more you blend, the more bitter the drink will turn!
Make sure to strain the drink using a fine mesh sieve into a pitcher filled with ice. Serve with a lemon wedge if you’re feeling fancy! You can also squeeze more fresh lemon into the pitcher for an extra kick.
Serve this Limonada right away – don’t store this as the lemon will get more bitter and alter the taste.
This recipe makes 4 tall glasses, reduce it or double it to your preference. As this drink can not be stored, I'd recommend making just as much as you need.
