Creamy Lemonade: A Creamy Twist on a Classic

I love playing with classic drinks and taking them to another level. I’m sure you’ve heard of creamy lemonade before but if you haven’t let this be the most delicious introduction! If you thought lemonade couldn’t get any better, think again because this milky lemonade recipe takes a classic drink and makes it creamy and indulgent. Inspired by the viral “dirty soda” trend, this drink is sweet, tangy, and oh-so-smooth. Using the beautifully floral elderflower lemonade as a base, you’ll be sipping on the most refreshing beverage in just minutes. Whether you’re looking for a fun summer treat or a new take on a classic drink, this creamy lemonade will be your new obsession!

Is This the Same as A Brazilian Lemonade?

Not quite! While Brazilian lemonade uses fresh lime juice blended with sweetened condensed milk, this recipe keeps things simpler with elderflower lemonade and dairy-free creamer. Both drinks are creamy and tangy, but this version is quicker and easier to whip up while still delivering that creamy texture.

Dirty Lemonade Ingredients

This simple creamy lemonade recipe comes together with just three ingredients:

  • Elderflower lemonade: The star of this recipe! Floral and naturally sweet, it adds a refreshing twist to the classic lemonade base. If you don’t have elderflower lemonade, you can use any lemon soda or sparkling lemonade. It could be a lot of fun to experiment with different sparkling lemonades or kombucha!
  • Dairy-free vanilla creamer: This creates the creamy texture and a touch of sweetness. Coconut cream or half-and-half works just as well for a rich and indulgent flavor.
  • Ice: Keeps the drink chilled and extra refreshing.
  • Optional garnish: Add a fresh lemon wheel for an extra pop of color and a burst of citrus aroma.

What is the Best Lemonade to Use?

The floral notes of Belvoir Farm Elderflower Lemonade are perfect for this recipe, adding a unique flavor that pairs beautifully with the creamy addition. However, if you don’t have elderflower lemonade, feel free to use any lemon soda or sparkling lemonade. Just make sure it’s sweet enough to balance the tanginess of the lemon juice.

How to Make This Creamy Lemonade

Making creamy lemonade is as simple as it gets. Here’s how:

Fill a glass with ice

Start by packing your serving glass with ice cubes to keep the drink cool.

Add the lemonade

Pour in a bottle (or about 12.5 oz) of elderflower lemonade.

Mix in the creamer

Add 3–4 tablespoons of dairy-free vanilla creamer, half-and-half, or coconut cream.

Stir and garnish

Mix well to combine, garnish with a fresh lemon wheel, and enjoy!

Why Should I Try Making Creamy Lemonade?

If you’re a fan of creative mocktails, twists on classic drinks or just love having something refreshing to sip on – this is the recipe for you! This creamy lemonade recipe is the ultimate way to elevate a simple drink into a luxurious treat. It’s super easy to put together, dairy free, refined sugar free and it is really easy to customize you fit your desires. 

Ways to Customize This Creamy Lemonade

Make this creamy lemonade recipe your own with these fun variations:

  • Add a fruity twist: Blend in a splash of berry syrup or purée for a colorful, fruity kick.
  • Turn it into a cocktail: Add a shot of vodka or rum for a boozy twist.
