Fruits offer some impressive health benefits, but they’re also delicious and incredibly refreshing. When fighting common diseases such as cold, one of the most needed vitamins is Vitamin C, which can be obtained in a large number by consuming fruits.
Vitamin C is essential in the process of development and growth of the human being, it helps to prevent the damage that can be caused by different free radicals, it also helps with wound healing, fighting cholesterol that causes heart disease and prevents diseases caused by poor oxygenation of the brain.
Out of all the fruits available to us, lemon has many nutrients and vitamins such as those corresponding to complex B and vitamin C in large quantities.
Using lemon in refreshing drinks is a custom that has been ingrained for many years, so what better way to honor traditions than preparing delicious slushies made with lemonade. Here are some of the best recipes for making refreshing lemonade slushies.
So without a further ado, here’s how to make a lemonade slushie!
Classic Lemonade Slushies Recipe
When we talk about classic lemonade, we imagine that it is as simple as squeezing a few lemons and that’s it, but it’s not as simple. A good lemonade requires us to follow specific instructions that make it taste as good as possible.
In this recipe we will teach you how to prepare this delicious classic lemonade slushie; like back in our childhood, we will only need three ingredients and a blender. This can also be used as a base to prepare other slushies that have a lemon flavor.
Classic Lemonade Slushies Ingredients
- 2 cups of sugar
- 4 large lemons
- The zest of the shell of the 4 lemons (only the green part)
- 1 liter of water
Classic Lemonade Slushies Ingredients Preparation
- Mix the zest and juice of the four lemons with the sugar.
- Boil on low heat and stir, so that the sugar dissolves.
- Add the liter of water once the previous mix cools down.
- Put the lemonade in the freezer for approximately 3 hours.
- Once our lemonade has frozen, we put it in a blender and blend it until it has the consistency we want for our lemonade slushy.
This lemonade slushie can be accompanied with a splash of grenadine or some syrup of your choice to make the refreshing drink a tad more interesting.
