Scale
Main Ingredients
- ⅓ cup pure honey
- ¼ cup warm water (under 110 degrees)
- 3-4 cups ice cubes
- 1 13.5 ounce can 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 honey into the warm water (ensure it is under 110 degrees) until completely dissolved to preserve the honey's health benefits.
- Combine Ingredients: Pour the honey water mixture into a blender. Add the ice cubes, chilled coconut milk, lemon juice, lemon zest, vanilla extract, and ground ginger.
- Blend: Blend the mixture until it becomes frothy and semi-slushy. If your blender struggles, add the ice cubes gradually in portions to facilitate blending.
- Garnish and Serve: Pour the frozen lemonade into glasses and optionally garnish with fresh lemon slices, mint leaves, or maraschino cherries before serving.
Notes
- Keep the water temperature under 110 degrees when dissolving honey to maintain its health benefits.
- Adjust the number of ice cubes to achieve your preferred consistency for the frozen lemonade.
- Using well-chilled coconut milk enhances the frothy texture and flavor.
- If a stronger lemon flavor is desired, increase the lemon juice or zest slightly.
- The ground ginger adds subtle warmth; omit or reduce if sensitive to spice.
