Description
This Whipped Pink Lemonade is a fun, creamy twist on classic lemonade, combining velvety whipped cream and tangy pink lemonade for a frothy, refreshing drink. It’s perfect for summer gatherings, parties, or just when you want a sweet treat with a bit of flair.
Ingredients
For the Whipped Topping
- 1/4 cup pink lemonade mix (such as Country Time)
- 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
For the Lemonade Base
- 2 tablespoons pink lemonade mix (1 tablespoon per glass)
- 1 1/2 cups water (3/4 cup per glass)
- Ice, as needed
Instructions
- Make the Whipped Cream: In a medium mixing bowl, combine 1/4 cup pink lemonade mix with the heavy whipping cream. Whip the mixture on high speed using a hand mixer or whisk vigorously until thickened and stiff peaks form.
- Prepare the Lemonade Base: Set out two glasses. Add 1 tablespoon pink lemonade mix and 3/4 cup water to each glass. Stir until the powder is fully dissolved.
- Add Ice: Fill each glass with ice until it’s about 2/3 full, ensuring your drink stays chilled and refreshing.
- Top with Whipped Cream: Spoon or pipe a generous amount of the pink lemonade whipped cream onto each glass.
- Serve and Stir: Before drinking, stir the whipped cream into the lemonade for an even, creamy texture in each sip. Enjoy immediately.
Notes
- Use full-fat heavy whipping cream for best results when whipping.
- Adjust the sweetness or tartness by adding more or less pink lemonade mix.
- Serve immediately for maximum frothiness, as the whipped topping will eventually dissolve.
- This recipe is easily doubled or tripled for larger gatherings.
- Try garnishing with fresh lemon slices or pink sugar for an extra-special touch.
