Ingredients
Ingredients
- 3 lemons
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 3/4 cup water
- 3 cups vanilla ice cream
Instructions
- Juicing the Lemons: Juice the lemons carefully until you have about 1/2 cup of fresh lemon juice. This fresh juice provides the tangy base for the lemonade.
- Mixing Lemonade: Combine the lemon juice and sugar in a bowl, stirring until the sugar dissolves completely. Add the 3/4 cup of water to dilute and balance the tartness.
- Blending the Frosted Lemonade: In a blender, combine the lemonade mixture with the 3 cups of vanilla ice cream. Blend until the mixture is smooth and frothy, creating a creamy and tangy frozen lemonade drink.
Notes
- Use fresh lemons for the best flavor and natural tartness.
- Adjust sugar amount to taste depending on lemon tartness.
- For a dairy-free version, substitute vanilla ice cream with coconut or almond milk-based ice cream.
- Serve immediately for the best frosted texture before it melts.
- To make it more decorative, garnish with a lemon slice or mint leaves.
