Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 1 cup coconut cream (Ensure it is dairy-free)
- 1 cup fresh lemon juice (About 4–6 lemons needed)
- 1/2 cup honey or agave syrup
- 3 cups ice cubes (Add more for thicker consistency)
Garnish
- Lemon zest for garnish (Optional)
Instructions
- Extract Lemon Juice: Start by squeezing the lemons to obtain fresh lemon juice. Using a citrus juicer will make this process easier and more efficient, ensuring you get all the juice out.
- Combine Ingredients: In a blender, add the coconut cream, fresh lemon juice, honey or agave syrup, and ice cubes. This blend of ingredients creates the base of your creamy frozen lemonade.
- Blend Thoroughly: Blend the mixture on high speed until it becomes smooth and creamy. Pause once or twice to scrape down the sides of the blender to make sure all ingredients are fully incorporated.
- Adjust Sweetness: Taste the lemonade mixture and, if needed, add more honey or syrup to achieve your desired sweetness. Blend again briefly to mix any additions.
- Serve: Pour the creamy lemonade into serving glasses, ensuring a smooth, icy texture in each pour.
- Garnish & Present: Optionally, sprinkle a little lemon zest on top of each glass to enhance the flavor and add an appealing decorative touch.
Notes
- You can substitute agave syrup with maple syrup or any other preferred natural sweetener to make it vegan.
- For a thicker, frostier texture, increase the amount of ice cubes.
- Adjust lemon juice quantity depending on your preference for tartness.
- Use fresh lemon juice for the best natural flavor instead of bottled lemon juice.
- This recipe is dairy-free and can be enjoyed by those with lactose intolerance or following a vegan diet (when using agave instead of honey).
