Ingredients

  • 1⅓ cups freshly squeezed lemon juice, 6 large lemons
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup VERY cold water
  • 6 cups vanilla bean ice cream
  • 4 to 5 drops yellow food coloring, optional
  • 4 sliced lemons, optional garnish

Instructions

  • Add the lemon juice and sugar to a 7 to 8 cup blender. Blend at low speed on either the milkshake or smoothie setting for 30 to 45 seconds. (This is a quick and easy way to dissolve and blend the lemon juice and sugar).
  • Keep the mixer at low speed on the milkshake or smoothie setting, and drizzle in the cold water. Blend for 10 to 15 seconds.
  • Add the 6 cups of ice cream to the lemonade. Secure the lid and pulse on low until the ice cream and lemonade are well blended. Pour into 14-ounce glasses and serve immediately.

Notes

  • When fresh lemons are on sale at the grocery store, buy a bag full of them and juice them. You can freeze lemon juice in ice cube trays so that you always have fresh juice on hand.
  • This delicious lemonade recipe makes four drinks but can easily be doubled to serve more people.
  • To keep your frosted lemonade as cold as possible while you’re enjoying it, you can place your (freezer-safe) serving glasses into the freezer for 5 to 10 minutes before filling them with your drink.
