  • 1 Cup Fresh lemon juice (about 4-6 lemons)
  • 1/2 Cup Granulated sugar
  • 2 Cups Ice cubes
  • 1 Cup Cold water
  • Lemon slices and strawberry halves for garnish (optional)

Equipment

  • Blender - To blend the strawberries, lemon juice, sugar, ice cubes, and water into a smooth slushie.
  • Cutting board - To prepare and hull the strawberries and cut the lemons.
  • Knife - To hull the strawberries and cut the lemons in half.
  • Lemon juicer - To extract fresh lemon juice from the lemons.
  • Strainer - To strain the lemon juice and remove seeds and pulp.
  • Measuring cups - To measure the quantities of strawberries, water, and ice cubes.
  • Measuring spoons - To measure the granulated sugar.
  • Glasses for serving - To serve the finished Strawberry Lemonade Slushie.

Method
 

  1. Step 1: Prepare the Strawberries
    Start by washing the strawberries thoroughly. Hull them by removing the green tops, and then cut them into halves. This ensures they blend smoothly and evenly.
  2. Step 2: Juice the Lemons
    Roll the lemons on your countertop to make them easier to juice. Cut them in half and squeeze out the juice. Strain the juice to remove any seeds and pulp. Fresh lemon juice is key to achieving that vibrant, zesty flavor.
  3. Step 3: Blend the Ingredients
    In a blender, combine the hulled strawberries, fresh lemon juice, granulated sugar, ice cubes, and cold water. Blend on high until the mixture is smooth and slushy. If the consistency is too thick, add a bit more water; if it's too thin, add a few more ice cubes.
  4. Step 4: Taste and Adjust
    Give the slushie a quick taste. If it’s too tart, add a bit more sugar. If it’s too sweet, a splash more lemon juice will balance it out. Blend again to incorporate any adjustments.
  5. Step 5: Serve and Garnish
    Pour the Strawberry Lemonade Slushie into chilled glasses. Garnish with lemon slices and strawberry halves if desired. This not only adds a touch of elegance but also enhances the flavor experience.
