Gorgeous Whipped Pink Lemonade
This bright drink is just pure happiness for summer. My version of whipped pink lemonade only needs some pink lemonade mix and a splash of heavy cream. It's super easy and lightning fast. Looks beautiful too, so pull it out for a cookout, a birthday, or just if you want to chill out by the pool.
Why This Drink Shines
You won't get this dreamy creamy flavor from plain lemonade. With velvety whipped cream, it's a total treat. You can throw it together in no time, but it has those fancy vibes. Awesome pick for showers, summer hangs, or leveling up your Instagram. Even kids can’t get enough.
Ingredients Checklist
- Powder Power: Your favorite pink lemonade powder—Country Time is one of my go-tos.
- Creamy Goodness: Pour in heavy cream for that rich dreamy sip.
- Chill Factor: Throw in tons of ice for that icy kick.

Tricks For Smoother Sipping
If you want it extra sweet, toss a scoop more powder in the whipped layer. Serve immediately for that amazing texture. Fancy it up a bit? Top it with lemons, fresh mint, or a fun straw.
Switch Things Up
Make it wild by using other Kool Aid flavors to match your party vibe. For extra fun, swap in sparkling water. Like surprise layers? Add crushed ice or extra fruit.
How To Save It
It’s tastiest fresh, but if you have spare whipped cream, put it in the fridge for up to a day. Just whip again real quick before using and you’re set.
