Description
A refreshing, creamy, and tangy treat, the Strawberry Frosted Lemonade is perfect for hot summer days or whenever you’re craving a sweet yet zesty beverage. The mix of fresh strawberries and tart lemonade, paired with a smooth, frosty texture, makes this drink a delightful twist on the classic lemonade.
Ingredients
1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled
2 cups lemonade (store-bought or homemade)
1 cup ice
1/2 cup vanilla ice cream or frozen yogurt
1 tablespoon sugar (optional, depending on sweetness preference)
Instructions
- In a blender, combine the fresh strawberries, lemonade, ice, vanilla ice cream (or frozen yogurt), and sugar if desired.
- Blend on high until the mixture is smooth and frosty. If it’s too thick, you can add more lemonade to reach your desired consistency.
- Pour the strawberry frosted lemonade into glasses, garnish with a few extra strawberry slices if desired, and serve immediately.
Notes
- If you prefer a more refreshing, slushy texture, you can omit the ice cream and just use ice and lemonade.
- For a tropical twist, substitute vanilla ice cream with coconut milk or cream.
- Frozen strawberries can be used instead of fresh ones for a frosty texture.
- If you want to make it sugar-free, use a sugar substitute or unsweetened lemonade.
- Add a splash of alcohol for an adult version, such as vodka or rum.
- The drink is best served fresh but can be stored in the freezer for later use. Re-blend if necessary before serving.
