Frozen Strawberry Lemonade Slushie

Quick icy blend of frozen strawberries and lemon for a bright, plant-based summer drink — ready in minutes.

# 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

04 - Lemon slices, for garnish (optional)

05 - Fresh mint leaves, for garnish (optional)

01 - Place the frozen strawberries, fresh lemon juice, and granulated sugar into a high-speed blender.

02 - Blend on high until the mixture is smooth and slushy, stopping to scrape down the sides if necessary.

03 - Taste and add more sugar if desired; for a thinner drink add up to 1/2 cup cold water or a few ice cubes and blend briefly.

04 - Pour into two glasses, garnish with lemon slices or mint leaves if using, and serve immediately.

01 -

You don’t need fancy syrups or store-bought mixes—just three honest ingredients and a blender, and you’ve got a café-worthy treat.
There’s hidden joy in adjusting the tartness and sweetness exactly to your liking, so every batch can be your perfect slushie.

02 -

Blending for too long can make the mixture watery and heat up the slush—short bursts are the trick.
Adding a little water or ice cubes helps if your blender struggles, but use a splash at a time to avoid thinning it too much.

Using super ripe strawberries means you can cut back on added sugar without losing flavor.
Strain the blended mixture through a fine sieve for an ultra-smooth (almost sorbetlike) finish.
