Description

Cool summer treats like this frozen pineapple lemonade offer refreshing relief on hot days. Caribbean-inspired flavors blend tangy citrus with sweet tropical notes, inviting you to savor each slushy sip.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups (473 ml) lemonade
  • 1 16-oz (454 g) package frozen pineapple
  • 4 cups (946 ml) ice

Instructions

  1. Blending Preparation: Chill blender with ice cubes to create a frosty base for the tropical beverage.
  2. Flavor Integration: Combine frozen pineapple chunks and fresh lemonade in the blender, ensuring a perfect balance of sweet and tangy flavors.
  3. Texture Transformation: Pulse ingredients thoroughly until achieving a smooth, slushy consistency with no remaining ice fragments.
  4. Finishing Touch: Gently swirl the mixture to guarantee uniform flavor distribution and pour into chilled serving glasses.
  5. Presentation: Optionally adorn with a delicate pineapple wedge or mint leaf to elevate the drink’s visual and aromatic appeal.

Notes

  • Chill Your Ingredients: Use pre-frozen pineapple chunks and cold ice cubes for the most refreshing, smooth texture without diluting the drink’s intense flavor.
  • Blend in Pulses: Short, quick blender pulses prevent over-processing and maintain the perfect slushy consistency, avoiding a watery result.
  • Balance Sweetness: Adjust lemonade quantity based on pineapple’s natural sweetness to create a perfectly balanced tropical drink that isn’t too tart or sugary.
  • Serve Immediately: Consume right after blending to enjoy the drink at its peak frostiness and prevent separation of ingredients.
