Description

Frozen Lemonade Pie is a refreshing summer dessert that combines creamy sweetness with a bright, tangy citrus punch. Featuring a smooth, icy texture and a buttery graham cracker crust, this easy-to-make pie is perfect for cooling down on hot days. Its vibrant lemon flavor and light airy filling make it a versatile treat ideal for family gatherings, picnics, or casual summer evenings.


Ingredients

Scale

Filling

  • 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 container (8 oz) whipped topping, thawed
  • 1 cup lemonade concentrate
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon zest

Crust

  • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 6 tablespoons melted butter
  • 2 tablespoons sugar (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the crust. Press the graham cracker crumbs firmly and evenly into the bottom and up the sides of a pie dish. Chill the crust in the refrigerator to help it set before adding the filling.
  2. Mix the filling. In a mixing bowl, gently fold together the sweetened condensed milk, thawed whipped topping, and lemonade concentrate until well combined while maintaining a light and fluffy texture.
  3. Add lemon zest. Stir in fresh lemon zest to the filling to enhance the citrus aroma and deepen the lemon flavor profile.
  4. Assemble the pie. Pour the creamy filling into the chilled crust, spreading it evenly to ensure balanced slices.
  5. Freeze until firm. Cover the pie and freeze for at least 4 hours or until completely set to achieve the signature frozen texture.

Notes

  • Use fresh lemon zest instead of dried to maximize flavor and aroma.
  • Gently fold ingredients to keep the filling light and fluffy without overmixing.
  • Chill the crust before adding filling to prevent sogginess.
  • Taste the filling before freezing and adjust sweetness or tartness as freezing can dull flavors.
  • For easier slicing, especially with a delicate crust, use a springform pan.
