Scale
Main Ingredients
- ⅓ cup pure honey
- ¼ cup warm water (under 110 degrees Fahrenheit)
- 3-4 cups ice cubes
- 1 can (13.5 ounces) light coconut milk, well chilled
- ⅓ cup lemon juice (from 2-3 lemons)
- 1 tbsp lemon zest (from 1 lemon)
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- ¼ tsp ground ginger
Optional Garnish
- Fresh lemon slices
- Fresh mint leaves
- Maraschino cherries
Instructions
- Dissolve Honey: Stir the pure honey into the warm water (keeping the temperature below 110 degrees Fahrenheit to protect honey's health benefits) until fully dissolved. Pour this mixture into a blender.
- Add Ingredients: Add the ice cubes, chilled light coconut milk, lemon juice, lemon zest, vanilla extract, and ground ginger into the blender with the honey mixture.
- Blend: Blend all the ingredients until frothy and semi-slushy. If your blender struggles with the ice, add the cubes in smaller portions gradually.
- Garnish and Serve: Pour the frozen lemonade into glasses and garnish with optional lemon slices, fresh mint leaves, or maraschino cherries. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Keep the water temperature under 110 degrees Fahrenheit when mixing honey to maintain its health benefits.
- Adjust the amount of ice cubes to achieve your preferred frozen consistency.
- You can substitute light coconut milk with another plant-based milk for a different flavor.
- This recipe serves 2, but quantities can be easily adjusted for more servings.
