For a less sweet lemonade, reduce the amount of sugar or sweetened condensed milk to your preference.
If you find the lemonade too tart, add a little more sugar or sweetened condensed milk to balance the flavors.
Adjust the amount of ice to reach your desired consistency and chill factor.
For a boozy version, add a shot of cachaça or white rum to each serving.
Be careful to not over-blend; over-blending results in a bitter taste.
