Equipment

Ingredients

  • 5-6 True Lemon crystalized lemon packets  You can also use powdered lemonade drink mix. Follow the instructions on the package for how much liquid you will need.
  • ½-1 cup sweetener or sugar I used 1 cup of monkfruit.
  • ½ cup lemon juice This was 2 lemons for me.
  • 5 cups water
  • 2-3 cups vanilla icecream Softened

Instructions

  • Combine all of the ingredients in a pitcher or bowl and stir. Taste repeatedly and make adjustments to suit your taste.
  • Add the lemonade to the Ninja Slushi Machine. Power on the machine and press Slush. Allow the machine to churn and freeze the mixture until the machine beeps to signal the cycle is finished. You can adjust the thickness of the mixture using the side panel. The lemonade should take 20-45 minutes. Mine took 25 minutes.
  • Add ice cream to the bottom of the cup or glass you plan use to serve the frosted lemonade. I add about ⅓ cup. Pull the lever on the spout to dispense the slushy over the ice cream. Stir to combine the ice cream and slushy.
  • Serve.

Notes

How to use a regular blender: You will need to add 2 cups of ice to the recipe (it's noted in the recipe card below) and add all of the ingredients to a blender and blend. Add additonal ice if you need to get it thicker. Add more sugar/sweetener or lemon juice to adjust the drink to suit your taste.
Store-bought lemonade works great—just make sure it's chilled before adding it to the Ninja Slushi machine for the best texture and freezing results. You can omit the lemon juice (crystalized lemon) and water used in the recipe.
If you use a powdered lemonade drink mix it may already be sweetened and have sugar. You will need to decide if it needs more.
 
If you want to use only fresh lemons, you will need 2 cups of lemon juice, 8-10 fresh lemons.
