This frozen whipped lemonade recipe is the thing that will keep you going this summer. During those brutal heatwaves, this refreshingly tangy and creamy cold drink is perfect for laying back and enjoying the rays or the air conditioner.
You're going to love this refreshing frozen lemonade drink, I know we have! We served it up a few times in one week it was just soo good. The creamy texture from the whipped cream and the tangy refreshing lemon really work well together and even as the ice in your glass melts until the sun's brutal rays, the drink itself still holds up pretty well. Sure it melts a bit, but not nearly as much as a regular iced drink would.
If drinking through a straw keep in mind that this drink is very thick so wider straws are recommended.
You only need 6 ingredients to make this frozen lemonade at home from scratch and it only takes a few minutes too. This time is well worth it in the end though because every sip just feels right as you try to escape the summer heat.

While this does look delicious, the nutrition information appears to be way off. Sweetened condensed milk has about 22g of carbs/sugar per serving, and each 14 oz. can contains 10 servings, resulting in 220g of carbs/sugar per can. Since the recipe has a full can of sweetened condensed milk spread across only four servings, that would result in 55g of carbs/sugar per serving, just from the sweetened condensed milk alone. Just wanted to give you a heads up so that you could fix that information.

Oh No! I'm so sorry about that.. The recipe cards do their own calculations with the ingredients and I didn't even think to double check the condensed milk. I have fixed the recipe card's nutrition to reflect accurate condensed milk nutrition and sugars.
