I wasn’t sure what to call this, because I didn’t add any ice cream or milk like a smoothie, I called it a chiller, like the ones at McDonald’s, but with fresh ingredients. To make it, I used the 2 packages of the frozen strawberries and 1 package of the frozen lemon juice cubes I had made recently. It turned out great and super sweet, so you could add more crushed ice to it to help make it less sweet. Or, reduce or omit the sugar, the strawberries I had were probably sweet enough to do without any sugar. We had some friends over today, and all the kids loved it!
Strawberry Lemonade Chiller
What you need:
2 cups water
1/2 cup sugar (use less or omit depending on how sweet you want it)
1 lb frozen strawberries, about 4 cups
1 cup frozen lemon juice cubes
Ice cubes, optional
How to make it:
Bring the water and sugar to a boil on the stove long enough to dissolve the sugar. Allow to fully cool.
Put the strawberries and sugar/water mixture in a blender and puree until smooth. Add in lemon juice cubes, and again, puree until smooth.
If mixture is too sweet for you, pour the mixture into a pitcher, then use blender to chop up 1-2 cups of ice cubes, and add to the pitcher, mix in well.
