Strawberry Lemonade Slushies are the Perfect Southern Summer Refresher🍓🍋
This year, one of my goals has been to waste less food. When I realized my strawberries were about to go bad, I put them in the freezer until I could figure out a yummy way to use them.
A rare sunny day plus lemonade in the fridge inspired an idea. Even though the weather was still on the chilly side, I wanted to enjoy the sunshine with spiked strawberry lemonade slushies!
The lemonade I used can be found at Sprouts Farmer’s Market, but any lemonade will work. I was so distracted by the gorgeous, glass bottles of colorful lemonade that I grabbed some up before realizing they were sparkling.
Something about those particular bottles and the labeling had me envisioning myself enjoying a glass on the patio. Is anyone else a sucker for brilliant packaging at the grocery store?
Since the sparkling lemonade ended up being tricky to work with, I strongly recommend a non-carbonated variety. The magic bullet does not like carbonation and will spew if mixed for a second too long (whoops!).
WARNING: Be careful when mixing and opening the Magic Bullet cup if you choose sparkling lemonade. The carbonation is under extreme pressure. My cup did overflow when I opened the first cup (luckily I was near a sink!) but I was more careful with the second one.
Enjoy the Strawberry Lemonade Slushie Magic Bullet Recipe Below!
Tip: Feel free to use more lemonade to replace vodka if you are looking for a mocktail or kid-friendly variety.

Strawberry Lemonade Slushie Recipe
Using a bottle of sparkling lemonade, plus frozen strawberries and vodka, this recipe makes the perfect boozy summertime drink.
Ingredients
- 2 cups frozen strawberries (chopped and de-stemmed)
- 2 oz. lemon or citrus vodka (I used Absolut Citron)
- 24 oz. lemonade (I used Sprouts Sparkling Lemonade)
Instructions
-
Add 1 cup of frozen strawberries & 1 shot (1 oz.) of vodka to the Magic Bullet cup.
-
Fill the remainder of the cup with lemonade (about 6 oz.), allowing a little room to put the lid on to blend. NOTE: If using sparkling lemonade, allow even more room because the carbonation could spew (see warning in post).
-
Blend ingredients in the Magic Bullet (or Nutribullet, blender, etc.) for no more than one minute at a time until strawberries are pureed.
-
Once blended, pour the contents of the cup into a pitcher or drinking glass. Be *VERY* careful when opening the cup if you use sparkling lemonade because of the carbonation.
-
Repeat the steps above for the second serving. Serve and enjoy!
Make a strawberry refresher for your pups to enjoy too!
