Limonada Congelado (Frozen Lemonade)

This is a great summertime treat your guests will love, but remind them to drink it slowly to avoid that inevitable “cold headache.”

Servings: 6 frosty 12-ounce glasses

  • 4 fresh lemons
  • 2/3 cup sugar
  • 4 cups water
  • Ice

Steps

  1. Squeeze the juice from four lemons.
  2. Reserve the rind ¼ of one lemon, discarding the rest.
  3. In a blender pitcher combine the lemon juice, the lemon rind, sugar and water and fill the pitcher with ice.
  4. Blend on high speed until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.
  5. Serve in a tall glass

HELPFUL HINT: To increase the juice production from each lemon, soften each lemon up before cutting it by rolling the lemon on the counter with the palm of your hand for about a minute.
