How to Make Fresh Limeade And Tropical Pink Limeade
- In a large pitcher, combine 1 cup fresh lime juice, 4 cups water, and 1/2 cup granulated sugar.
- Stir well to dissolve the sugar.
- Taste and add more sugar (1-2 tablespoons at a time), to your liking.
- For the Tropical Pink Limeade: Cut the ends off 2-3 prickly pears (about 1 cup).
- Make a shallow slit lengthwise down each prickly pear and peel away the thick skin. Discard the skin.
- In a small bowl, coarsely crush the prickly pear fruit with a fork or potato masher.
- Strain the prickly pear puree through a fine-mesh sieve into the limeade mixture. Stir to combine.
- Taste and add more lime juice or sugar to adjust sweetness and tartness as needed.
- Serve both limeades over ice immediately and enjoy!
