Sarah’s Notes
Since Sarah has tested and approved this recipe for lemon meringue smoothies as one she would repeat, I’ve added it to the “Sarah’s Recipes” section. Here are her personal notes on the recipe:
This was really good and very refreshing but more of an icee or slushie than a smoothie. The flavor balance was good, and although I thought it was a weird ingredient, I liked the melted ice cream on top! I bet the CocoWhip would be another good topping. It tasted like really good Italian ice. I shared it with my daughter after her cross country race in 90 degree heat yesterday and we both couldn’t think of anything to change.
Sarah did end up trying it without the ice cream topping …
And with CocoWhip, too!

Ridiculously refreshing!!!!!!! I’m a HUGE fan of meringue and need this in my life NOW!
I love the fresh flavor of lemon and could certainly enjoy this smoothie year-round. This would be perfect after my daughter’s tennis practices.
Wow! I would have never thought of this combo! Sounds refreshing! It’s still warm here – this would be a great after-soccer treat.
