Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 1/3 cups freshly squeezed lemon juice (from 6 large lemons) Freshly squeezed lemon juice is recommended for the best flavor.
  • 1 cup granulated sugar Adjust to taste for sweetness.
  • 1 cup VERY cold water Cold water is essential for the perfect creamy texture.
  • 6 cups vanilla bean ice cream Quality ice cream is recommended for the best texture.
  • 4 to 5 drops yellow food coloring (optional) Optional for aesthetic purposes.
  • 4 slices lemons (optional garnish) For garnish to enhance presentation.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Add the lemon juice and sugar to a 7 to 8 cup blender. Blend at low speed on either the milkshake or smoothie setting for 30 to 45 seconds.
  2. Keep the mixer at low speed and drizzle in the cold water. Blend for 10 to 15 seconds.
  3. Add the 6 cups of ice cream to the lemonade. Secure the lid and pulse on low until the ice cream and lemonade are well blended.
  4. Pour into 14-ounce glasses and serve immediately. For extra chill, place freezer-safe serving glasses in the freezer for 5 to 10 minutes before filling.

Notes

For a whimsical touch, consider garnishing with a sprig of mint. Use very cold water and quality ice cream for the best texture. If you prefer a less sweet version, reduce the sugar to your taste.
