Whipped Frozen Lemonade
https://www.eatingwell.com/recipe/2.....ozen-lemonade/
Whipped frozen lemonade combines the creaminess of a milkshake with the thirst-quenching tanginess of freshly squeezed lemonade for an incredibly refreshing treat. And this simple frozen lemonade treat comes together with just four ingredients and a blender. You can use light coconut milk or refrigerated coconut milk in place of full-fat coconut milk, though the end result won't be as rich and creamy. Leftover simple syrup will keep for up to 1 week in the refrigerator.
Ingredients
Lemon Simple Syrup
½ cup granulated sugar
½ cup water
Zest of 1 lemon
Lemonade
½ cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (from 2 lemons)
1 cup full-fat coconut milk
2 ½ cups ice cubes. Hint: Put ice cubes in an old bread bag. Place the bag on the counter. Whack the bag with a short 2x4 to pre-crush the ice cubes.
Directions/Instructions Checklist
Step 1
To prepare simple syrup: Bring sugar and water to a simmer in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally until the sugar dissolves. Stir in lemon zest and remove from heat. Cover and let steep for 1 hour, then strain the syrup through a fine-mesh sieve; discard the zest. (You'll have extra syrup; refrigerate for up to 1 week.)
Step 2
To prepare whipped lemonade: Add 1/2 cup simple syrup, lemon juice, coconut milk and ice to a blender. Blend until the ice is crushed and the mixture is slushy. Divide between 4 8-ounce glasses and serve immediately.
Tips
To make ahead: Refrigerate simple syrup (Step 1) in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
