Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 to 2 cups frozen strawberries about 12 to 16 ounces (340 to 455 g)
  • 1/2 cup fresh-squeezed Meyer lemon juice 4 fluid ounces (120 ml), about 4 to 5 lemons; regular lemons work too
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar about 2 ounces (50 g), plus more to taste

Method
 

  1. In a blender, add the frozen strawberries, fresh-squeezed Meyer lemon juice, and sugar.
  2. Blend on high speed until the mixture is completely smooth and slushy.
  3. If the mixture is too thick to blend, pour in cold water 1 tablespoon (15 ml) at a time, blending after each addition, until it reaches the consistency you like.
  4. Taste the lemonade and add more sugar, a teaspoon at a time, if you like it sweeter. Blend briefly to combine, then serve right away.

Notes

Swap the strawberries with an equal amount of frozen raspberries or peaches for a new flavor twist.
To make a creamier version, blend in a small scoop of vanilla ice cream or 1/4 cup canned coconut milk.
If using honey or agave, stir it into the lemon juice first so it incorporates evenly.
This drink is best enjoyed immediately; if it separates while sitting, give it a quick stir.
For an even icier texture, add a handful of ice cubes and blend for a few extra seconds.
Make-ahead tip: freeze the finished lemonade in an ice cube tray, then blend the cubes with a splash of water when you are ready to serve.
Do not overfill the blender; if it is too full, pulse in batches to avoid straining the motor.
