The months are getting warmer and I’ve been looking for healthier frozen treats recipes to beat the heat. This Frozen Strawberry Lemonade is our favorite, and is ready in 2 minutes!
Do you remember on our Oh Sweet Basil Facebook page a month ago how I asked you to guess what dessert our daughter had requested for her birthday? This was it. Well, actually she requested slushies, who in the world knows why she wanted a slushy when she could have cake or brownies, but this frozen strawberry lemonade totally ended up being awesome.
I have a lot of friends and family members who don’t or can’t use sugar and instead use Wholesome® Organic Stevia and they are always asking me to make something refreshing that isn’t watermelon ice (apparently that’s the go to if you can’t have refined sugar) for those summer BBQs, so I was all over partnering with them to make a healthy spin on a summer drink.
Is Stevia Safe?
Yes.
It’s a better alternative to artificial sweeteners and may help with glucose tolerance.
It’s safe to say that when consumed in reasonable amounts, stevia is a good natural sugar substitute.
I’ll admit that I wasn’t totally sure how this would all turn out as I’ve had a sweetener that left a gross, bitter taste in my mouth so I’m probably overly picky when it comes to using a product like this. And if it didn’t work we knew we wouldn’t do the recipe, but it totally did! I’m so excited to tell my uncles that using Organic Stevia for a healthy lifestyle because it’s Organic, Non GMO, Vegan & Kosher and it actually tastes good!
A lot of frozen lemonades wanted lots of water and ice, and I get it, water for the lemonade and ice for the frozen factory, but we didn’t like it. Why would you use ice when you can throw in frozen berries and get 1. more flavor and 2. extra vitamins from the berries?! Plus, it fluffs up more and it looks pretty which totally matters, at least to me.
You literally just throw everything in a blender, lemons, water, frozen berries, Wholesome Organic Stevia and blend until smooth! It’s so refreshing. It’s thick and creamy but without the calories and craziness of ice cream and it’s just flat out delicious.

Can you estimate the amount of lemon juice? I juiced a bunch of lemons and froze cubes…
Sweet Basil
It’s about 1/4 cup. You may want to add a little more depending on how lemony you want it!

This looks pretty darn tasty. I happen to be the cook in my family, but my wife does all the gardening. Last year she started growing stevia plants. I was a bit wary on how it would turn out, but man… it was some good sweetener! She has more planted this year.

Ben, that’s so funny because yesterday I was back and forth on trying to grow my own. I wish I would have bought them now! Pretty easy to care for?
