    It's front porch sittin' and sweet tea sippin' time here in Alabama! This 2 ingredient Frozen Strawberry and Sweet Tea Lemonade combines two of my favorite Southern drinks: strawberry lemonade and sweet tea. Now that's a new Southern twist! I made it with Southern Breeze Half and Half-flavored zero calorie sweet tea bags. You can also make this slushy drink using lemonade and sweet tea if you don't mind the sugar. Either way, it's quick, easy and refreshing!

    2 Ingredient and 2 Minutes to prepare Frozen Strawberry and Sweet Tea Lemonade is made with zero calorie sweet tea! Garnish with lemon slice and blue striped paper straw with Southern Breeze sweet tea individual tea bag on a white plate.

    While Strawberry Lemonade is one of my favorite drinks, all the sugar and calories that come with it are not! I already knew I loved Southern Breeze Sweet Tea Half and Half (half lemonade-half sweet tea) because the presweetened individual tea bags have ZERO calories.

    Sweet inspiration

    So, when I wanted to try making a frozen strawberry lemonade to enjoy in my "Happy Place" (covered back porch with canvas curtains and papasan chair), I knew it was going to start with Southern Breeze sweet tea.

    When I looked on Pinterest to get a general idea of how many strawberries, how much ice, and how much liquid, I was surprised to see how much sugar was used in many of the recipes. Many recipes also used of frozen strawberries-with added sugar!

    I did like the idea of using just frozen strawberries instead of adding ice-because you know I'm all about shortcuts in my recipes. That eliminated one ingredient. You've probably frozen bananas before to add to a smoothie. This is the same idea.

    Freeze your own strawberries

    Avoid the extra sugar from the strawberries frozen in syrup and get the most vibrant red color by freezing your own fresh strawberries.

    To freeze fresh strawberries remove the green caps first. Then freeze in mini muffin pans or a cookie sheet depending on how many you want to freeze.

I love the fact that Southern Breeze Sweet Tea comes in individual tea bags so I can make this refreshing drink one at a time in my Magic Bullet Mini blender.

    After 2 hours, fresh strawberries should be frozen. The Magic Bullet blender will hold about 5 medium size strawberries.After 2 hours, fresh strawberries should be frozen.

    Pack frozen fresh strawberries in a zip top plastic bag after freezing them in muffin tins. This way it's easy to pull just a few out at a time to make Frozen Strawberry and Sweet Tea Lemonade any time.

    Keep these two ingredients on hand this summer to make on the spur of the moment! Southern Breeze Sweet Tea bags and frozen strawberries.

    Voila! Frozen Strawberry and Sweet Tea Lemonade. Done. 2 Ingredients. 20 calories. Yes please!

    What's the Shortcut?

    The half and half flavor (half lemonade, half sweet tea) is the perfect flavor to make this frozen lemonade/tea. It also creates another shortcut because it has the lemonade And sweet tea flavors with just ONE ingredient.
