Frozen Strawberry Lemonade Slushie (Printable)

Three-ingredient frozen strawberry lemonade slush, brightened with fresh lemon and adjustable sweetness.

# What You'll Need:

→ Main Ingredients

01 - 2 cups frozen strawberries
02 - 1 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (about 4 lemons)
03 - 1/3 cup granulated sugar, or to taste

→ Optional Garnish

04 - Lemon slices, for garnish
05 - Fresh mint leaves, for garnish

# Directions:

01 - Place the frozen strawberries, freshly squeezed lemon juice and granulated sugar into a high-speed blender.
02 - Blend on high until the mixture is uniformly smooth with a slushy texture, pausing to scrape down the sides as needed.
03 - Taste and add additional sugar if required; if the mixture is too thick, blend in up to 1/2 cup cold water or a few ice cubes to reach the desired consistency.
04 - Divide the slush between two glasses, garnish with lemon slices and mint if desired, and serve immediately.

# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • You can pull this together in under five minutes even if you get surprise visitors.
  • Clean-up is a breeze, and it brings just the right hit of zest and sweetness without any fuss.
02 -
  • If you over-blend, it can get watery and lose that perfect chewy slush—blend just until the last chunk breaks down.
  • Once I swapped in honey by accident, and the floral note turned a simple slush into something unexpectedly special.
03 -
  • If your blender isn’t super strong, let the strawberries sit at room temp for just two minutes before blending.
  • Finishing with a lemon peel twist is the little secret that really freshens and perfumes every sip.
