Lemon Frozen Yogurt
I have a little secret to share with you…
When I was a little girl, I used to sneak into my Mom’s freezer and open a can of frozen lemonade and eat it right from the can!
Mmmmm…it was tart and sweet and full of citrusy flavor! I kept a little can way back in the freezer so no one would notice.
Lemon is one of my favorite flavors if you haven’t noticed.
I can’t help myself! This frozen yogurt recipe reminds me of my sneaky little indulgence in the freezer.
Simple ingredients and easy to make.
Tart and sweet!
When life hands you lemons – make this!

I do not have an ice cream maker. Will this recipe work if I mix it well in a mixer bowl and freeze in containers?
It should work. I would recommend stirring it in intervals while freezing.
Thank you for all the lemon recipes! Lemon is very special to me. When my Mom died, I was craving ANYTHING LEMON! Lemon cookies, custard, pudding, jello – just ANYTHING with lemon in it. I started thinking about it, and remembered that when I was young, if I had anything I really needed to discuss with my Mom or Dad, they would take me to Mary Coyle’s in the Falls, and we would get lemon sodas and talk until my problem was resolved. So lemon became my “comfort food”!
So thank you, Linda, for your “lemon offerings”! Dee Curry
Dee – What a lovely story. Isn’t it funny how food reminds us of our youth? Thanks for your comment!
