Recipe Notes

There are many varied recipes for fruit cocktails in Brazil. You can personalize yours by blending condensed milk with fresh or frozen fruits of your preference (always combining neutral with acidic fruits) or fruit juices. Other optional ingredients include a little bit of heavy cream, or for a non-virgin version, alcohol such as vodka.

Although it is best consumed chilled within 5-10 minutes of being prepared, you may refrigerate in a pitcher with a lid for up to 24 hours. Just make sure to mix it well before serving.
