Scale
- 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
- 1-2 tablespoons granulated sugar or sweetener of choice
- A pinch of salt
- 1/4 cup milk or water (adjust according to preference)
- 1 cup ice
- 1/3 to 1/2 cup cold heavy cream or coconut cream
- Optional: a splash of vanilla extract
- Optional: thin lemon slices for garnish
Instructions
- Chill the blender jar and a metal spoon in the fridge for about 10 minutes.
- Squeeze 2 to 3 lemons to get about 1/2 cup of fresh juice and strain out seeds and pulp.
- In a blender, add lemon juice, sweetener, salt, milk or water, and ice. Blend until smooth and lightly frothy.
- Pour in the very cold heavy cream or coconut cream and pulse a few times until soft, airy bubbles form.
- Taste and adjust sweetness or lemon juice as needed, adding more cold liquid if too thick.
- Fill a glass with fresh ice and pour the lemonade slowly to keep the froth on top. Garnish with a thin lemon slice if desired.
Notes
Serve immediately for the best foam. Customize with different sweeteners or add fruits like strawberries or matcha for variations.
