Print Recipe

A quick and easy frozen strawberry lemonade slushie with a tangy, spicy-salty Tajin rim that’s perfect for hot days and crowd-pleasing refreshment.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and halved
  • 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice (about 3–4 lemons)
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar (adjust to taste; can substitute with honey or agave)
  • 1 cup cold water
  • 3 cups ice cubes
  • Tajin seasoning (for rimming glasses)
  • Pinch of salt (mixed with Tajin for rimming)
  • Lemon wedges (for rimming glasses)

Instructions

  1. Pour Tajin and a pinch of salt onto a small plate and mix well.
  2. Rub a lemon wedge around the rim of each glass, then dip the rims into the Tajin-salt mixture to coat evenly. Set aside.
  3. Wash, hull, and halve about 2 cups of fresh strawberries. Optionally, lightly mash them with a muddler or fork before blending for extra flavor.
  4. Juice 3-4 lemons to get about 1/2 cup (120 ml) of fresh lemon juice. Strain to remove seeds and pulp if desired.
  5. In a blender, combine strawberries, lemon juice, granulated sugar, and cold water. Blend on medium speed until sugar dissolves and mixture is smooth, about 30-45 seconds.
  6. Add ice cubes to the blender. Pulse on high until the ice is crushed and the mixture is slushy, about 1-2 minutes. Stop and stir if needed for even consistency.
  7. Taste and adjust sweetness or thickness by adding more sugar or water as needed, blending briefly again.
  8. Pour the frozen strawberry lemonade slushie into the prepared Tajin-rimmed glasses.
  9. Garnish with a lemon wedge or whole strawberry on the rim and serve immediately.

Notes

Use organic strawberries for sweeter flavor. Roll lemons before juicing to release more juice. Prepare Tajin rims just before serving to keep them dry and crispy. Use fresh solid ice cubes for best texture. If blender struggles, pulse slowly or blend in batches. Drink is best served immediately to maintain icy texture.
