Ingredients
For The Pink Lemonade
For Garnish (Optional)
Instructions
Whip The Cream
In a large mixing bowl, pour the cold, heavy whipping cream and sweetened condensed milk. Using an electric hand mixer or stand mixer, whip the mixture on medium-high speed until soft peaks form. This should take about 2–3 minutes. The whipped cream should be fluffy, hold its shape, and remain smooth. Place the whipped cream in the refrigerator to keep it chilled while you prepare the rest of the drink.
Blend The Pink Lemonade Base
In a blender, add fresh lemon juice, pink lemonade concentrate, cold milk, granulated sugar, and ice cubes. Blend on high until the mixture is completely smooth and frothy. The base should be pale pink and slightly thickened from the ice. If needed, adjust the sweetness to your taste by adding a little more sugar or lemonade concentrate to your liking.
Assemble The Whipped Pink Lemonade
Take tall glasses and fill each about three-quarters full with the blended pink lemonade base. Gently spoon a generous dollop of the chilled whipped cream on top of each glass, letting it sit like a cloud over the pink lemonade. For an extra special touch, use a spatula or spoon to gently swirl the whipped cream into the drink, creating a marbled effect, or leave it as a fluffy topping.
Garnish And Serve
For a beautiful marbled effect, use a spoon or small spatula to gently swirl the whipped cream down into the pink lemonade in each glass. This creates soft, cloudy trails that blend with the pink base, resulting in a gorgeous marbled look while maintaining a layer of cream on top.
Garnish each glass with a fresh lemon slice and a sprig of mint. Optionally, add an extra dollop of whipped cream or a few colourful straws for a festive vibe. Serve immediately while the drink is chilled and the whipped topping looks fresh.
