Frozen Raspberry and Vodka Lemonade

raspberries

lemonade

vodka

ice cubes

Geoffrey Zakarian's Frozen Raspberry and Vodka Lemonade is seen on the set Food Network's The Kitchen, Season 7.

Combine the frozen raspberries, lemonade concentrate, vodka, ice cubes and 1/2 can of water (from the lemonade can) and puree in a blender until smooth.

Divide the mixture among 6 small rocks glasses or cordial glasses and serve with a straw.

Used my Vitamix and it was perfection.  Yum!  Hiccup!  ;)

This tastes really good, the frozen raspberries bit is a little odd to me so I think I might use fresh next time. Other than that it's great! 

This was absolutely delicious! Hubby and I just finished a whole pitcher by the pool today. Perfectly sweet and tart! I used Citron vodka too. GZ, you're a bad, bad influence!!!

This makes a super easy beautiful cocktail but it is really sweet. It was actually too sweet for us so we added some dry rose' and oh yum was it good!!

Fresh Lemonade

lemon juice (5 to 6 lemons)

sugar,

water

Place all the ingredients in a blender and process until completely smooth. Serve over ice.

Had leftover fresh squeezed lemon juice and 1 cup of simple syrup. added the 4 cups of water and blended.  This was delicious!  Placed in a pitcher and garnished with some lemon slices.  Perfect for a hot day!

A bit watery in my opinion.  I did 3.5 cups of water for 1 cup of lemon juice and it wasn't pungent enough for me.

This recipe was super simple and easy! Perfectly sweet! Thanks so much for this Ina!

Best love the lemonade I’ve ever made from scratch perfect    Ina 

This lemonade is spot on-delicious!! So refreshing and easy to make. Beats any lemonade, hands down. Also, my kids have so much fun making this and feel so proud when everyone compliments it. Thanks, Ina! 

Excellent!  (Lower sugar than most) I made a simple syrup...didn’t want to stir as long.  Reminded me of childhood family reunions and my aunts lemonade ♥️

I have no idea how people thought it was good. Blending it totally ruined it. It was literally a milky color! Sad all those lemons had to go to waste.

OMG! So happy to find this easy recipe...I made Ina's Mediterranean Salad and a Fresh Lemonade to go with it sounds heavenly!  Thanks!!

Fabulous. I used regular granulated sugar and whole ice cubes, just processing it in my Vitamix. Because I used the regular instead of superfine, I went with the 3/4 cup of sugar; it's just the perfect amount of tartness and not too sweet. Very refreshing and I think it'll be a big hit at our Fourth of July celebration.

Pink Lemonade

grenadine

maraschino cherries

Place the lemon juice, sugar, ice, water, and grenadine in a blender and process until completely smooth. Place a cherry in the bottom of 6 glasses and pour the lemon juice mixture in the glass. Serve.

This was very good Pink Lemonade, very refreshing.

ina, i cant get over how AMAZING ALL your recpies are!!! i have made most of them and they ALL ARE FAB!!!! recomend to EVERYBODY!

I made this for my daughter's 3rd birthday party since it was a pink theme. LOVED IT!. My guest drank cup after cup. Will make this again.

Easy and delicious! My family said this was the best lemonade ever! We did not have maraschino cherries, so we added more grenadine. We also added some Angostura bitters. This is our new lemonade recipe!

Was very tasty and refreshing! I used (accidentally 4 cups of ice instead of one and it turned out delicious! I don't know how Ina served this with only 1cup of ice! SO SOUR!

Me and my brother made it because it was so hot today! Just the right drink to cool us down!! thankyou! Very Delicious!

I used this receipe for my aunt's 70th birthday barbeque. Very refreshing, not too sweet, lip smacking good.  SunshinBell

Ginger Lemonade

sugar

ginger

lemon peel

lemons

Ice,

Combine the sugar, ginger and lemon peel in a small saucepot. Pour enough water to cover the mixture, about 1 cup. Bring the mixture to a boil and simmer, about 5 minutes. Remove the saucepot from the heat and let sit at least 15 minutes up to a few hours.

Pour the lemon juice in a pitcher. Add 3 cups water and the sugar mixture and mix to combine. Serve the lemonade over ice.

Great recipe very tasty and not too high in sugar. Always looking for ways to use fresh ginger. I would recommend however straining it in a mesh nutmilk bag otherwise you have chunks of lemon/ginger in your drink. 

My boyfriend said, "This is *really* good," after he tried it : ) Next time, I will definitely make a double batch. I omitted lemon peel because I was concerned about pesticides in the rind, so I substituted a few drops of pure lemon extract instead. New favorite. I think the ginger-lemon syrup would be great in tea : ) : )

This was a very refreshing straight forward recipient. The ginger added a great twist.

This is a nice, refreshing drink.  Would be better in the summer.  I did strain the syrup before I added it to the pitcher.  Ten Dollar Dinners is my favorite show!

Melissa makes lemonade special with an infusion of grated fresh ginger.

Melissa's Ginger Lemonade

Baked Lemonade Pork Chops

tomato ketchup

soy sauce

cider vinegar

(1/4 pound) brown sugar

black pepper

onion ginger

paprika, chili powder

Cooking oil,

pork

flour

For the sauce: In a large bowl or pitcher, mix all of the sauce ingredients together. Set aside.

For the pork chops: Heat a large heavy skillet over medium heat and add enough cooking oil to coat the bottom. Dredge the pork chops in the seasoned flour and brown for approximately 2 minutes per side in the skillet. Transfer the chops to a baking pan. Fan the chops so that each chop is exposed as much as possible.

Pour the sauce over the chops and cover the baking pan with heavy aluminum foil.

Bake until the chops are tender 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Transfer the chops to a serving platter and serve.

I made it exactly as listed came out delicious only disappointment bbq sauce was not as thick as in picture. Will add red pepper flakes next time to make it spicy. 

THIS IS AN OFFICIAL FAMILY FAVORITE! Wow...These pork chops rock! My only comment is the sauce doesn't thicken up into a lacquer sauce once it's finished cooking. The easy fix is take out some of the liquid into a separate pot, set it to medium high and add in a corn starch slurry to thicken the sauce up and serve over the chops. DELICIOUS!

Very juicy and the sauce is really good, can use on other meats as well.

This is one of our family's go to favorites. The recipe makes about 8 cups of sauce, which is a little time consuming to make. I've found with our family of 6, it only takes 2 cups of sauce for the 9 chops I make, so I freeze the other three servings of sauce to save time later.

 Excellent and easy to make. The first time I made these I used turkey burgers too. I made the burgers very juicy. I made them again today and added 1/4 cup of liquid smoke

Really tasty.  I used fresh lemonade and omitted the vinegar. Very easy, too.  Will fix again!

Absolutely wonderful. My wife and I tore them up the first time I made them. My wife took a couple over to my son at work, and he was in awe. We all loved them, and yes, they were very easy to make. The best part is that we dont have to have dried chops anymore. These babies are tender and juicy.

I really liked the smell and taste, just wished mine would have turned out thicker and more like a glaze. I'll definetely tweak this, probabbly less water with the lemonade concentrate.

I think this was a wonderful new way to make pork chops. I did halve the sauce and still had extra. So, I simmered it down until it was very thick. Great on a hamburger, hot dog or you name it. As stated in other reviews, this does not taste like lemonade. I also cut the oregano. I eyeballed it. Will def make this again. 

Easy to make however there is no flavor to the sauce. There is definitely way to much sauce which as others have suggested could easily be halved. Didn't make the pork any more tender or flavorful. Very disappointed...

Cotton Candy Lemonade

lemon

pink cotton candy

Strain the lemon juice into a large serving container or pitcher, removing the seeds and pith. Stir in the sugar until dissolved. Add 4 cups cold water and continue stirring until well combined. Add the lemon slices. Just before serving, add ice into cups and pour 1 cup lemonade into each. Stir or swirl 1/2 to 3/4 cup pink cotton candy into each glass of lemonade until dissolved.

Really amazing I sold some all day and ended up with $127 dollars

Want to make the perfect refreshing lemonade without juicing every lemon in sight? This simple blender lemonade combines just water, sugar and whole lemons. No zesting or even juicing needed! Add fresh berries or mint and in two minutes you can have a frothy drink that’s just right for a day at the pool or as an afterschool pick me up.

Whole-Lemon Lemonade

lemons (about 10 ounces; see Cook's Note)

blueberries

strawberries

mint

For the lemonade: Slice off both ends of the lemons. Quarter both lemons lengthwise. Trim the segment wall (any pithy white parts) from the tips of each quarter and remove any seeds. Add the trimmed lemon quarters to a regular or high-powered blender. Pour in the sugar and 1 cup of water. Blend until completely smooth, about 30 seconds to 1 minute. Add 4 more cups of water to the blender and blend until the liquids combine, another 5 to 10 seconds.

For the mix-ins: At this point, you can add the blueberries, strawberries or mint to flavor your lemonade, and blend again until smooth.

If you are using a high-powered blender, you can pour this directly from the blender into a glass over ice, or transfer to a covered pitcher or jar and refrigerate for up to 1 week.

If you are using a standard blender, you will need to strain your lemonade through a fine-mesh sieve to remove the bitter pulp that remains. Use a rubber spatula to press juice out of the pulp in the strainer. Discard the pulp and serve the lemonade over ice.

Lemon Limeade

lemon juice

lime juice

lemon, sliced

lime, sliced

In a large saucepan, heat the sugar and 2 cups water until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture is hot. Allow to cool, and then place into a large drink dispenser or jug. Add the lemon juice and lime juice and stir. Fill with ice and top with 1 gallon (16 cups) cold water. Add the lemon and lime slices.

Just made it. Awesome! Didn't change a thing.

Total hit with everyone who’s had it. I love this recipe so much, i bought a juicing attachment for my kitchen aide. I’ve also experimented a bit with the recipe, add more lime juice for a more limey taste. I also use less water to make it more tart. Awesome recipe!

OMGoodness. Ree once again you've done it. This is mine and my husbands favorite drink. LOVE LOVE LOVE the show.(and your cooking, yum). thank you.

Three types of lemonade, with salt, with vanilla, and pineapple core with cloves, as seen on The Kitchen, Season 22.

Salty Lemonade

1.6-quart container store-bought lemonade

kosher salt, plus additional as needed

Stir together the lemonade and salt in a large pitcher until the salt is fully dissolved. Taste and add more salt as desired. Serve over ice.

I’m adding salt to my lemonade from now on! I tried this stir-in on a particularly hot summer day. It was surprisingly refreshing. The salt enhances the flavor so much so I didn’t need to add as much sugar! 

Geoffrey Zakarian makes Rhubarb Pink Lemonade, as seen on Food Network's The Kitchen

Rhuberry-Basil Pink Lemonade

rhubarb,

basil leaves

seltzer

basil leaves,

For the rhubarb simple syrup: Add the rhubarb and 2 cups water to a small pot and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and add the sugar. Stir until dissolved, then take off the heat. Let steep until cooled, about 2 hours. Stain into a resealable container and refrigerate until chilled.

For the strawberry-basil puree: Combine the strawberries, basil and 1/4 cup of the chilled rhubarb simple syrup in a blender and puree until smooth. Transfer to a pitcher.

For the lemonade: Add the lemon juice and 1 1/4 cups of the chilled rhubarb simple syrup to the pitcher with the strawberry-basil puree and give it a good stir. Add the seltzer and stir lightly. Pour into 4 glasses filled with ice, garnish each with a lemon wedge and basil leaf and serve. 

I Love! this drink, I will make it for a summer party. I add tequila to the drink.

Great sweet and tart, thick, refreshing drink.  Excellent.

Made this for dinner party and everyone LOVED it!!  Already planning on making it alcoholic next time. Thanks GZ!!!

Made this for Easter, non-alcoholic so kids could drink it. We added raspberry vodka for the adults - huge hit!

This was OUTSTANDING! I made this for a cocktail to serve with Easter dinner.  I added tequila,and everyone loved it.

Vanilla Paste Lemonade

vanilla bean paste

Stir together the lemonade and vanilla bean paste in a large pitcher. Serve over ice.

Absolutely delicious.  Great combination, but when I tried the vanilla paste it wouldn't dissolve and I opened a new bottle for this.  Problem solved, I used a little less than a demi-tasse spoonful of pure vanilla extract to approx. 16 oz of lemonade.  I'm hooked.

Pineapple Clove Lemonade

cloves

pineapple core (at least 6 inches long)

Insert the cloves in the pineapple core evenly on all sides. Place in large container and

cover with the lemonade, making sure the core is submerged. Steep 1 hour in the fridge, then serve over ice.

Kentucky Lemonade

shot whiskey (recommended: Jack Daniels)

lemonade concentrate, thawed

lemon-lime soda

Maraschino cherries,

Pour whiskey and lemonade concentrate into a highball glass. Stir. Add ice cubes and fill glass with soda. Garnish with a maraschino cherry.

Y'all need to chill.  Remember, you're mixing your refined beloved alcohol of choice with lemonade concentrate and fizzy high fructose lemon water.  Do y'all run race gas in your F-150's?  Doubt it.  Recipe is fine the way it is.  And refreshing on a hot 115 degree day.  

I'm not from Kentucky, but when I saw the name of this recipe, I immediately thought Kentucky bourbon would be the alcohol. This recipe comes closer to being a Lynchburg Lemonade. (That's Lynchburg, TN; where Jack Daniels is made. Just add 1/2 ounce of Triple Sec and you pretty much have it. Increase the frozen lemonade concentrate to 3 oz and it would take the place of sweet and sour mix, then top it off with 1/2 oz of soda. Yum, one of my favorite drinks. We in TN take our whiskey seriously too. As stated before, all bourbons are whiskey, but not all whiskeys are bourbon. A true bourbon has to come from Kentucky, but Tennessee is famous for whiskey be it Jack or George. My rating is for the recipe, not the name.

I thought this was a great recipe, and that everyone commenting needs to remember that this is only a drink, no need to beat each other up about it :)

How dare you call this Kentucky Lemonade and use that Tennessee filth?  Learn to read labels.  And you might want to also learn about a region before you name anything after it.  You offended alot of people with that one mistake.  Kentucky takes ITS bourbon seriously.

A good "summertime" sipping refreshment.  Remember, ALL bourbons are whiskey; but, not all whiskeys are bourbon.

This was certainly very delicious with Jack Daniels.  My company enjoyed this drink very much and asked for the recipe.  By the way to the nasty little comment below me, Jack Daniels my dear is a BOURBON, TRY ANOTHER WORD FOR YOUR SPECIFIC SELECTION OF LIQUORS. If you think you know so much using the word Kentucky is not always affiliated with THE STATE OF Kentucky.  Just a simple name for a drink.

How can this be called "Kentucky" Lemonade? Jack Daniels is a Tennessee whiskey and therefore makes this drink no longer associated with Kentucky.  Next time, use your brain and recommend a BOURBON to mix with it.  Such as Bulleit, Woodford Reserve, Buffalo Trace, Blanton's, Noah's Mill, Eagle Rare, or even our revered seven-dollar-a-fifth Kentucky Gentleman.  Choosing any of these would create a far superior drink and one that actually deserves to be called Kentucky Lemonade. 

 havent made it but looks good, n can you put anything else besides whiskey in it?

I'm a HUGE fan of Lemonade-Anything-Drinks, so this one really caught my eye. Instead of using concentrated lemonade (because it is quite sweet), most stores have other lemonade drinks that work really well with this mix. We have Simply Lemon here, and of course, I like to make my own lemonade (it's super easy to do, and you can make it as sweet or tart as you like). Makers does work well in this drink, I'll admit, but I also like using Southern Comfort if I don't have anything else.  Sorry Kentucky!

Havent made this but sounds nice.  Seems pretty simple to back off the sweetness with Diet Soda, or even better just Club Soda--or combo of the two (like a Press).

Made this cocktail in the pitcher form as shown, NOT as written.  Used can of frozen lemonade concentrate, 2 cans Sprite Zero, 1 can of whiskey and lots of ice.  It was the PERFECT refreshing drink on a hot summer evening in the south.  (Oh, the 'cans' I mentioned were using the lemondade container as measuring guide).  This is now going into my personal book of favorites.  Those thinking it was too sweet should try using the Sprite Zero to cut the calories and some of the sugary sweet taste.  The drink has a taste along lines of whiskey sour or hard lemonade.  GREAT!

I think she made this in a pitcher with 1 can lemonade mix and 2 cans of sprite in stead of water and Kentucky Bourbon to taste. My father was born in Paintsville Ky. So you other readers are so right to use a Kentucky Product. Keep jobs in the back yard. I like Makers Mark or Jim Beam that's all you can get up here. Take care all.

I agree with other's who said this was too sweet. I don't know which ingredient made it so sweet, but I don't think it's even worth trying to figure it out.  I usually love Sandra Lee's recipes but this one was a bust.

I was going to make the drink and when I looked it up this is not the way she made it on tv. She made a pitcher full. I wish she would give the recipe the same as she made it. I know she used a full can of frozen lemonade and I think two cans of lemon-lime drink but I cannot remember the rest. Does anyone else remember how it was made?

It's a slap in the face to ALL Kentuckians to call this Kentucky Lemonade when it is suggested to use Jack Daniels Whiskey.  Jack Daniels is a Tennessee product.  You should use Maker's Mark or Wild Turkey to make this recipe.  Then, I might raise my rating!!

First of all, it is SO wrong to name something Kentucky lemonade, and then reccomend JD whisky!!!  Come on, break out the Maker's Mark!  Other than that, it was pretty good.

I loved this drink.  My whole family loved it.  We used Kentucky Tavern for the whiskey, since we live in KY.  And it was great.  My husband said it reminded him of a Whiskey sour.

A good change of pace. Nothing spectacular.

We made this using Maker's Mark instead of Jack Daniels, everyone loved it. The taste was well-balanced and really enjoyable. We will serve these again on Father's Day.

The lemonade concentrate is very sweet.  Added to the sweet soda it was just way too sweet.  Even the whiskey didn't cut the sweetness.

I just saw this episode and looked very easy to make, as well as a good pick-me-up. The episode looked like she used much more lemonade... I'll have to experiment with it.

Tennessee Lemonade. Guy FieriGuy Off The HookGD-0105

Tennessee Lemonade

lemon,

Gentleman Jack bourbon

Triple sec

club soda.

In a small sauce pan over high heat, combine sugar and water and bring to a boil. Turn off heat and cool. In a mixing glass, muddle lemon, add bourbon, simple syrup, ice, and triple sec. Shake and pour into a Collins glass, finished with a splash of soda on top. Squeeze a lemon slice on top.

When we did this in the food processor, it was hard to get the sourdough pretzels to the right shape.

Excellent but a bit sweet will reduce the simple syrup for my second one. 

I used whiskey and not bourbon since that is what I had on hand....but came out great/will make it again!

This drink is fantastic (semantics aside, the "bourbon mistake" caught my eye right away too).  This is insanely superior to the traditional Lynchburg Lemonade recipe as I've always found sour mix just not all that appealing.  In my book any time a recipe uses fresh fruit it will always top something made with a prepackaged mixer.

Jack Daniels (including Gentleman Jack is NOT bourbon. It is a type of whiskey, but it is not bourbon. So, the recipe is incorrect when it refers to the Gentleman Jack as 'bourbon', but it's perfectly fine that it's called Tennessee Lemonade since Jack is made in Tennessee! Sounds tasty, will be trying it this weekend! And what is this in the instructions: "When we did this in the food processor, it was hard to get the sourdough pretzels to the right shape."? I think that's in the wrong recipe...

Since bourbon is, by definition, from Kentucky shouldn't this be called "Kentucky Lemonade"? (smile)

Good stuff but real Lynceburgh Lemonade is better  1 part Jack Daniel's, 1 part triple sec, 1 part sour mix and 4 parts lemon-lime soda.  .

Who would expect anything less from THE MAN !!

Lemon wheel,

Muddle the cucumber, mint, raspberries and ice in a shaker. Add the lemonade and sweet tea vodka. Shake well. Pour into a high ball glass or mason jar and garnish with a lemon wheel.

I have made this tea many times and would have to say it was great. 

I served this at a family BBQ and everyone loved it!  Have plenty of extra ingredients on hand because it goes fast.

Whatever the season, Guy's Sweet Tea Cocktail is like summer in a glass.

Guy's Sweet Tea Cocktail

Inspired by TikTok’s viral whipped lemonade – a summery beverage pushed to popularity with the help of user @goldenxclouds in 2020 – this version caps a fizzy spiked ice tea with a creamy lemonade topping. It plays up the flavors of the classic Arnold Palmer in a new way. Feel free to swap sweetened plain iced tea for the hard seltzer variety if you want a non-alcoholic version.

Description: Food Network Kitchen's Whipped Arnold Palmer.

Whipped Arnold Palmer

heavy cream

powdered lemonade drink mix,

seltzer iced tea (see Cook’s Note)

lemon wheel,

Whisk the heavy cream and powdered lemonade drink mix in a medium bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed until fluffy and able to hold medium-stiff peaks, about 1 minute.

Pour the hard seltzer into a rocks glass filled halfway with ice. Top with the whipped lemonade and serve with a lemon wheel on the rim. 

The unboozy Arnold Palmer-named after the golfer-is a mix of half lemonade and half iced tea. We kept the tea and added grilled-lemon lemonade and a shot of bourbon for a sophisticated, not-too-sweet take on this favorite summer drink.
