This copycat Chick-fil-A frosted lemonade recipe is a super easy and refreshing treat and it’s perfect for warmer weather. It’s very similar to the original, but there’s no need to leave your house; all it takes is a blender and just 4 simple ingredients and you can whip it up yourself in a matter of minutes.
Place the lid securely on the blender and mix on high until everything is well blended.
If you would like it to be thicker, add ice and blend again until no chunks of ice are left.
1 cup ice (optional)
Pour in a glass and garnish with a lemon slice, wheel, or wedge. Optional: Add a dollop of whip cream or a little lemon zest!

Notes
You can use any lemonade, the more authentic the better! If you’re using a lemonade that’s not very sweet, you may even want to consider adding a teaspoon or so of sugar or sweetener to the blender as well.
If you like it a little more tart you can add a little extra lemon extract.
Lemon extract is available at most grocery stores and chain drugstores (Walmart etc.), if you really can’t find it you can use fresh lemon juice in its place. Substitute about 1 ½ - 2 tablespoons of fresh lemon juice for the ½ teaspoon of lemon extract.
Variation: Try using strawberry ice cream instead of vanilla for a frosted strawberry lemonade!
