Ingredients
  

1 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (about 4-6 lemons)

1 cup granulated sugar

4 cups cold water

1 cup heavy cream

1/4 cup powdered sugar

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

A few drops of pink food coloring (optional)

Lemon slices and fresh mint for garnish

Instructions
 

Make the Lemon Mixture: In a large pitcher, combine the freshly squeezed lemon juice and granulated sugar. Stir well until the sugar is completely dissolved.

    Add Water: Add the cold water to the pitcher and mix thoroughly. Taste and adjust sugar or lemon juice based on your preferred sweetness and tartness. If desired, add a few drops of pink food coloring for an appealing hue, stirring until well combined.

      Whip the Cream: In a medium mixing bowl, pour in the heavy cream. Beat it with an electric mixer on medium speed until it thickens and soft peaks form (about 2-3 minutes).

        Sweeten the Whipped Cream: Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract to the whipped cream while continuing to beat on low speed until fully incorporated, ensuring the mixture remains fluffy.

          Assemble the Drink: In serving glasses, fill halfway with the pink lemonade mixture. Top each glass with a generous dollop of the sweetened whipped cream.

            Garnish and Serve: Decorate each glass with a lemon slice on the rim and a sprig of fresh mint. Serve immediately with a straw or stirrer to mix the whipped cream into the lemonade.
