Many years ago my husband and I went on vacation with my parents, my sister and her husband to the US Virgin Island of St. John.
We had a fabulous time and discovered an amazing little lemonade cafe near our rented villa. The recipe below is the best version I’ve managed to recreate of their delicious & unique lemonade made with whole frozen pieces of lemon.
Ingredients:
- 32 oz lemonade
- 16 oz crushed ice
- 2 frozen lemon slices

Directions:
Make the frozen lemon slices a day beforehand. Wash a lemon thoroughly and cut it into slices. Remove both ends of the lemon and discard them. Remove the seeds from the remaining slices and discard them. Place the seed-free lemon slices in a zippered freezer bag and freeze them overnight.
Pour lemonade into Vitamix blender, add ice and frozen lemon slices.

Blend on high until smooth & frothy.

Serve immediately and enjoy a moment of lemony summer bliss!

So you blitz the lemon peel and pulp as well?

Yup! You got it! I know it sounds terrible but the Vitamix gets it really smooth and it adds an extra zing of tartness. We love it 😊
