Ingredients
Scale
Pink Lemonade Base
- 2 tablespoons pink lemonade mix
- 1½ cups cold water
- Ice, as needed
Whipped Topping
- ¼ cup pink lemonade mix
- ½ cup heavy whipping cream
Instructions
- Prepare the Whipped Topping: In a medium bowl, whip together ½ cup heavy whipping cream and ¼ cup pink lemonade mix until soft peaks form, approximately 2–3 minutes. This creates a fluffy, tangy topping for the lemonade.
- Make the Pink Lemonade Base: In a tall glass, stir together 2 tablespoons of pink lemonade mix with 1½ cups of cold water until the mix is fully dissolved to form the lemonade base.
- Add Ice: Fill the glass with ice cubes to chill the lemonade base and stir well to keep it cool and refreshing.
- Top with Whipped Cream: Spoon the whipped pink lemonade topping over the iced lemonade base, creating a layered effect and adding creamy texture.
- Serve and Garnish: Serve immediately. Optionally, add garnishes like lemon slices or sprinkles for an extra festive touch and visual appeal.
Notes
- Use chilled ingredients for the best refreshing effect.
- For a lighter version, substitute heavy whipping cream with whipped coconut cream for a dairy-free alternative.
- Adjust the amount of pink lemonade mix according to your preferred sweetness and tartness.
- Serve immediately as the whipped topping may lose volume over time.
- Garnishes like lemon slices or edible flowers enhance the presentation.
