Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 2 cups lemonade (fresh-squeezed is ideal) Using fresh lemonade enhances the flavor.
  • 2 cups ice Smaller ice cubes blend more easily.
  • 1/4 cup sugar (optional, depending on desired sweetness) Adjust based on the sweetness of the lemonade used.
  • Fresh lemon slices for garnish Adds flavor and visual appeal.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Begin by gathering your ingredients—lemonade, ice, and optional sugar.
  2. In a blender, combine the lemonade and ice. If using sugar, add it now.
  3. Blend on high until you achieve a slushy texture, about 30-60 seconds.
  4. Taste the slushy and adjust sweetness as needed. Add more lemonade if it's too thick.
  5. Pour into frosty glasses, add fresh lemon slices as garnish, and serve with straws.

Notes

For optimal texture, blend just before serving. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 3 days.
