This Copycat Chick fil A Frosted lemonade is the perfect summertime treat.
I don’t have any Chick fil A restaurants near where I live although rumor has it there is one coming soon. On my last visit to Utah I drove by Chick fil A and noticed a sign advertising a Frosted Lemonade. Not one to pass up a lemon treat I had to stop and check it out. Let’s just say I had to check it out more than once to make sure I really liked it. And I did.
Frosted lemonade is the perfect summer treat. A combination of cool ice cream and delicious lemonade.
Now that I’m home in Oregon and there are no Chick fil A’s close by. And that means no Chick fil A frosted lemonade. So, I decided to make my own at home. It’s simple. All you need is ice cream, lemonade and a blender.
After it is all blended up nice and smooth pour it into a nice tall glass, add a straw and enjoy.
Or you may need a spoon. This frosty summer drink is one of the best way to enjoy a warm summer day!

My favorite kitchen tools for making FROSTED LEMONADE:
VITAMIX – this baby is my favorite. We use it every morning to make a smoothie but it’s great for milkshakes and pureeing soups too.

Went to Chick Fil A for the first time and had one of these a few weeks ago while vacationing in Arizona. I haven’t been able to get them out of my mind since:) I was so excited to see the copycat version and can’t wait to make them! So wish we had a Chick Fil A in Vancouver, WA. We loved everything about it! Thanks for this!

I can confirm the 1:2 lemonade to ice cream ratio. I asked at a local CFA and they said that’s how they make em. We also use Breyer’s Natural Vanilla but found that Simply Lemonade is far too sweet. The lemonade from CFA is nice and tart so it cuts the sweetness of the ice cream really well.
I would recommend either adding some fresh lemon juice to give it a little more of that bite or make your own from the CFA recipe (http://realmomkitchen.com/11692/chick-fil-a-lemonade/). Another nice treat is adding a dash of Limoncello (lemon liquor) for the adults partaking.

Micah, Thanks for the great suggestions.

This sounds so good. When we visit our son in Arizona we try to get to a chick fil a but we keep missing out. They opened one in Bellevue a little while ago and they have big traffic jams constantly, they had to make changes to the traffic patterns and has been in the news a lot. Also, love lemon anything. Going to get ingredients today to make. Looks delicious. Thanks
