Ingredients
Scale
Drink Mix
- 1/4 cup pink lemonade mix (such as Country Time), divided
- 1 1/2 cups water
- Ice cubes, as needed
Whipped Cream
- 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
- 2 tablespoons pink lemonade mix
Instructions
- Mix Lemonade Base: In a large pitcher or bowl, combine 1/4 cup of pink lemonade mix with 1 1/2 cups of cold water. Stir thoroughly until the mix is completely dissolved to create the lemonade base.
- Prepare Whipped Pink Cream: In a chilled bowl, pour the 1/2 cup of heavy whipping cream. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of pink lemonade mix to the cream. Using a hand mixer or stand mixer, whip the cream and lemonade mix on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form and the mixture is light and fluffy.
- Assemble the Drink: Fill serving glasses with ice cubes to your preference. Pour the prepared pink lemonade base over the ice, filling the glasses about three-quarters full.
- Top with Whipped Pink Cream: Spoon a generous dollop of the whipped pink lemonade cream on top of each glass. This will add a creamy, frothy layer that complements the tart lemonade underneath.
- Serve Immediately: Serve the whipped pink lemonade immediately to enjoy the contrast of cold lemonade with the airy whipped topping.
Notes
- For an extra sweet touch, you can add a little granulated sugar to the lemonade base before mixing.
- Use chilled heavy cream and bowl for best whipping results.
- Adjust the amount of pink lemonade mix to your taste preference for sweetness and tartness.
- Serve immediately as the whipped topping may deflate if left standing too long.
- Variation: Garnish with lemon slices or fresh mint for a decorative touch.
