Step-by-Step Instructions for Lemonade Slushie
  1. Start by gathering your ingredients: fresh squeezed lemon juice, granulated sugar, water, and plenty of ice. You can also have some lemon slices for garnish.
  2. In a blender, combine 1 cup of fresh lemon juice, ¾ cup of sugar, and 3 cups of water. Add 4-5 cups of ice and blend on high speed for about 30-60 seconds until smooth.
