Frozen Strawberry Lemonade
- Author: Annie Chesson
- Prep Time: 15 mins
- Total Time: 15 mins
- Yield: 10-12 servings 1x
- 15 mint leaves (optional)
- 1.5 liters of water
- 1 16oz box of strawberries
- 2 teaspoons Truvia (or any other sweetener) or more to taste
- 4 lemons
- Muddle your mint leaves for a few minutes in the bottom of a pitcher using a wooden spoon to release their oils
- Add the 1.5 liters of water
- Squeeze in the juice of 4 lemons
- Half all the strawberries and place them in a blender with about 1/2 cup of the lemonade
- Blend until the strawberries are completely pureed
- Add the puree into the lemonade
- Add your sweetener to taste (I added 2 teaspoons)
- For this next step, you can use a baking sheet or a baking dish. If you use a baking dish you might need more than one. I used one baking sheet and it was a bit of a challenge to get into the freezer without spilling. If you want to avoid this, you could split the lemonade between two baking sheets.
- Strain the lemonade using a sieve directly into your baking sheet/dish
- Place in the freezer until the lemonade is frozen through, several hours or over night
- Using a fork, scrape against the frozen lemonade to form small shards of ice and spoon into cups or bowls
- *The “total time” of this recipe does not include the time it takes to freeze, because it will be different for each person depending on how many baking sheets/dishes you use*
