Removing the white pith from limes can reduce bitterness.For a fizzy twist, substitute cold water with sparkling water.Add fresh mint leaves before blending for a refreshing herbal note.Adjust sweetness by adding sugar, honey, or using less sweetened condensed milk.For a vegan version, use sweetened coconut milk or plant-based condensed milk alternatives.
