- 6 cups vanilla ice cream
- 1 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 1 1/2 cups ice-cold water

- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
Garnish (Optional):
- Lemon slices
Instructions
- Create a tangy lemonade base by thoroughly mixing freshly squeezed lemon juice with granulated sugar in a blender until completely dissolved.
- Incorporate ice-cold water into the lemon mixture, pulsing briefly to ensure smooth integration.
- Drop scoops of rich vanilla ice cream into the blender, transforming the liquid into a frosty, creamy concoction by blending until silky and uniform.
- Carefully pour the velvety frosted beverage into chilled glasses, allowing the mixture’s vibrant yellow hue to shimmer.
- Optional: Embellish each glass with a delicate lemon wheel or twist for an elegant citrusy presentation.
- Serve the refreshing drink immediately, offering guests a straw or long spoon to fully appreciate the luxurious texture and zesty flavor profile.
Notes
- Experiment with different citrus juices like lime or grapefruit for a unique twist on the classic frosted lemonade.
- For a lighter version, swap full-fat vanilla ice cream with low-fat frozen yogurt or dairy-free alternatives like coconut or almond milk ice cream.
- Adjust sugar levels based on the tartness of your lemons – taste and modify sweetness before blending with ice cream for perfect balance.
- Freeze leftover lemonade in ice cube trays to create an extra frosty texture without diluting the drink’s flavor when blending.
