Main Ingredients
- 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
- 3 cups ice cubes (330g)
- 1/4 cup sugar (or sweetener of choice)
- 2 tsp lemon zest
Optional Ingredients
- 1/2 cup vanilla yogurt (or ice cream or coconut cream)
Instructions
- Prepare Ingredients: Gather all the ingredients and ensure the ice cubes are ready to use for quick blending.
- Blend Mixture: In a high-speed blender, combine the fresh lemon juice, ice cubes, sugar, and lemon zest. Blend until the consistency is thick and slushy, indicating the ice has crushed perfectly.
- Adjust Sweetness: Taste the lemonade and add more sugar or sweetener if desired. Blend briefly again to mix any added sweetener evenly.
- Serve: Pour the frozen lemonade into glasses. Optionally garnish with mint leaves or extra lemon zest for added aroma and presentation. Serve immediately for the best icy texture.
Notes
- You can substitute sugar with honey, agave syrup, or any preferred sweetener.
- Add vanilla yogurt, ice cream, or coconut cream for a creamier texture and flavor.
- For a dairy-free option, use coconut cream instead of yogurt.
- If you prefer a less tart flavor, reduce lemon juice slightly or increase sweetness accordingly.
- This drink is best consumed immediately to enjoy the slushy texture before it melts.
