Making your own lemonade is the best way to control the sweetness. This recipe shows you how. Add sugar/sweetener to taste and use less of it if you don't want a sweet drink.
Stick to 1-1.5 oz alcohol per serving – Any more and the drink won’t freeze properly.
Yes, you can use lemon concentrate, but be sure to dilute it with water and add sweetener/sugar to taste.

It will usually tell you how much water to add per serving.
Slushies are best enjoyed immediately, as they can melt quickly. If needed, you can freeze the mixture and re-blend when ready to serve.
