Ingredients for Frozen Strawberry Lemonade

Here’s all you need to make this sunshine-in-a-glass drink:

• 2 cups frozen strawberries – I always keep a bag in my freezer just for this recipe!
• 2 cups lemonade – Store-bought works great, but homemade is even better if you’ve got it
• Ice (optional) – Only if you want an extra-thick slushie texture

See? I told you it was simple! The frozen strawberries do double duty – they chill the drink and give it that perfect slush consistency without watering it down.

How to Make Frozen Strawberry Lemonade

Okay, let’s make some magic happen! This is so easy you’ll laugh, but the results are seriously delicious.

1. Dump everything in: Toss those frozen strawberries straight into your blender (no thawing needed!). Pour in the lemonade right on top.
2. Blend it up: Hit that blend button for about 30-45 seconds until it’s perfectly slushy. You’ll hear the sound change when it’s ready!
3. Check the texture: Too thin? Add a handful of ice and blend for another 10 seconds. Too thick? Splash in a bit more lemonade.
4. Serve immediately: Pour into your favorite glasses – mason jars make it extra cute! The icy goodness melts fast, so drink up while it’s frosty.

Blending Tips

Here’s my pro tip: pulse a few times before full blending to break up the strawberries. And don’t overdo it – you want a thick slush, not strawberry soup! Frozen fruit works better than ice for thickness because it won’t water down the flavor. If your blender struggles, just stop and stir halfway through.

Ingredient Notes & Substitutions

No frozen strawberries? No problem! Fresh berries work too – just add a big handful of ice to get that perfect slushy texture. Want it sweeter? Use pink lemonade instead of regular. For a tart kick, try adding a squeeze of fresh lemon juice. And if you’re feeling fancy, swap half the lemonade for sparkling water – it gives the drink this amazing fizzy lift! Just remember: the colder your ingredients, the better the slush will be.

Serving Suggestions for Frozen Strawberry Lemonade

This drink practically begs to be dressed up for summer fun! I love serving mine in chilled mason jars with a fresh strawberry perched on the rim and a lemon slice floating on top. For backyard BBQs, I make a big batch in my blender and let guests pour their own – it disappears fast! Poolside, beach days, or just lounging on the porch – this icy treat turns any moment into a mini-celebration. Pro tip: stick a few extra frozen strawberries in the glass as edible “ice cubes” to keep it frosty longer!

Storage & Reheating

Let’s be real – this frozen strawberry lemonade tastes best when you slurp it down immediately! But if you must save some (why?!), pour leftovers into an airtight container and freeze for up to 2 hours max. When ready, just toss it back in the blender with a couple ice cubes to revive that perfect slushy texture. Warning: it’ll never be quite as magical as fresh, so drink up while it’s frosty!

Nutritional Information

Here’s the scoop on what’s in your frosty glass (per serving): about 120 calories, 30g carbs, and 2g fiber from all those strawberry goodies. Remember: these numbers are estimates and will change slightly depending on your exact ingredients. The frozen strawberries pack vitamin C, while the lemonade gives that sunny citrus zing – basically summer hydration with benefits!
