Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups (300g) frozen strawberries
  • 1 cup (240 ml) lemonade
  • 1 cup (approx. 150g) ice cubes

Instructions

  1. Measure out 2 cups (300g) of frozen strawberries. No need to thaw; using frozen is what makes this drink icy and refreshing. If your strawberries are large, you can cut them in halves for easier blending.
  2. Pour 1 cup (240 ml) of lemonade into the blender. Fresh is great, but store-bought works fine too. Taste your lemonade firstβ€”if it’s very sweet, you might want to reduce the amount slightly.
  3. Add 1 cup (approx. 150g) of ice cubes. This will help thicken and chill the drink. For a slushier texture, add a few extra ice cubes, but be careful not to overdo it or the flavor can get diluted.
  4. Secure the blender lid and pulse on medium-high speed. Start slow to break up the ice and frozen fruit, then blend continuously until smooth and creamy. This usually takes around 45 seconds to 1 minute. You want a thick but pourable consistency.
  5. Stop and check the texture. If it’s too thick, add a splash more lemonade; if too thin, toss in another handful of ice. Blend again briefly to combine.
  6. Pour into chilled glasses immediately. Garnish with a lemon slice or fresh mint if you like. Serve with a straw or spoon for scooping the thicker bits.

Notes

If your blender struggles with ice chunks, let the frozen strawberries sit out for 2-3 minutes before blending. Avoid over-blending to prevent the drink from becoming watery. Use frozen fruit straight from the freezer for best texture. For a slushier drink, add extra ice cubes carefully. Clean blender promptly to avoid berry stains.
