Loading...My sister Desiree found this again after 20 years! It was perfect for very hot summer days and kind to my parents’ budget with 7 kids plus the neighbors! Great to have on hand in the freezer.
Difficulty: Easy
Servings: 15
Prep Time: 20 minIngredients
2 cups water
3 cups sugar (1 1/2 c works ok!)
2 3-oz pkgs lime Jell-O
9 tbsp lemon juice
8 cups milk (some fat is good, like 2 %)
7-Up®
Directions
Mix in sauce pan, 2 cups water and 3 cups sugar. Boil together to dissolve. Add 2 packages of lime jello and the juice of three lemons (or 9 tbsp Real Lemon concentrate). Chill. Put into large mixing bowl. Add 8 cups milk and beat until well combined. (If use nonfat/skim milk, add in some milk powder to give richer flavor, or use a higher fat milk — turns out nicer). Pour into clean ice cream gallon bucket. Freeze 3 hours and mix thoroughly again. Again, freeze to solid (usually overnight). Scoop into tall serving glasses about 3/4 full and pour in 7-up. Mix up a bit with spoon and enjoy. Terrific in the summer on a hot day–fastest way to get a cold-headache that I know of!!! 🙂
