Ingredients
Scale
Whipped Cream
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Pink Lemonade
- 1/2 cup pink lemonade concentrate (thawed)
- 1 cup cold milk (dairy or non-dairy)
- Ice cubes
Garnish (Optional)
- Lemon slices
- Fresh berries
Instructions
- Prepare the Whipped Cream: In a mixing bowl, use a hand mixer to beat the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until soft peaks form. This means the cream will hold its shape but still be fluffy and light.
- Mix the Pink Lemonade: In a separate pitcher, whisk together the thawed pink lemonade concentrate and cold milk until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Assemble the Drink: Fill serving glasses with ice cubes, then pour the pink lemonade mixture over the ice to chill the beverage.
- Add the Whipped Cream Topping: Spoon a generous dollop of the whipped cream on top of each glass, creating a creamy layer that complements the tart lemonade beneath.
- Garnish and Serve: Optionally garnish each glass with lemon slices and fresh berries for added color and flavor, then serve immediately to enjoy the refreshing, frothy treat.
Notes
- For a dairy-free version, substitute the heavy whipping cream with coconut cream and use plant-based milk such as almond or oat milk.
- You can freeze the pink lemonade mixture in ice cube trays for an extra frosty and chilled drink sensation.
