Creamy Coconut Lemonade Recipe
Ingredients:
- 1 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (about 4–6 lemons)
- 1 cup coconut milk (full-fat for extra creaminess)
- ½ cup sweetened condensed milk (adjust to taste)
- 2 cups cold water (or coconut water for extra coconut flavor)
- Ice cubes
- Lemon slices and mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
Instructions:
- Juice the lemons
Squeeze fresh lemons to get about 1 cup of juice. Strain to remove seeds and pulp if desired. - Blend the ingredients
In a blender, combine:
- Lemon juice
- Coconut milk
- Sweetened condensed milk
- Cold water Blend until smooth and creamy.
- Taste and adjust
Taste the mixture—add more condensed milk for sweetness or lemon juice for tang. - Serve
Fill glasses with ice and pour the lemonade over. Garnish with lemon slices or mint if using. - Optional: Chill
Let it chill in the fridge for an hour if you want it extra cold and for flavors to meld.
Tips:
- For a frothier texture, blend in a few ice cubes directly.
- Want it dairy-free? Swap condensed milk with coconut cream + maple syrup or agave.
- Try adding a dash of vanilla for extra depth.
