My mother invented this back when I was about 6 years old and I'm 76 now. After filling the cubes with the lemon juice, she served 4 to 6 ice cube in each tall glass, gave one to each person than hande them a FORK. Part of the FUN was chopping up your own cubes to eat the "Ice Cream" as she called them. My sister and I loved it. Then I did the same for my kids and they loved it and I never heard an adult complain about chopping up their own ice cubes. Keep in mind, the more sugar you add to your juice, the softer the ice cubes get to chop up. The less sugar, the cubes STAY as frozen water then you need a BLENDER!

She didn’t invent it but this definitely helped during my first pregnancy
It is relaxing to watch cooking channels. Cooking is my favorite form of art.
Am I the only one who at 3:18 hear her say in case the kids don't want tequila lol
LOVE LOVE LOVED THE RECIPE CAN'T WAIT TO TRY IT, AS A DIALYSIS PATIENT WE NEED TO FIND BETTER TASTING LIQUID ITEMS THAT WE CAN EAT, DRINK OR SLURP. I have been making lemonade ice for about the 3 years I have been on dialysis but now I got an ice shaver and I know it will come out the same, so thank you :-D
It's great to see you're still cooking great things! I love what we used to call Italian ices in Brooklyn. When we finally get some hot weather, I will love these, I'm sure. Thanks very much.
Oh Julia - I could watch you all day.
I live in Atlanta where it gets really really hot. If I happen to have juice on hand I will take some of it and freeze it in ice cube trays. I pop them out I put them in a plastic freezer bag. I take a few out OK maybe six or seven and put them in a coffee mug and let them sit out for a minute or two they start to thaw out just a little bit and then they get to where you can just pick them up in with them in your mouth and they’re so good. Can’t recommended enough.
I’m so thankful for all that you share with us. Thanks for being so generous. Happy Easter!
LOVE watching you cooking at home! MORE PLEASE!!!!
Thank you! I will definitely make this!
Yummy! I will try this with a good limoncello🤪
I just love how you think!!! I have lemon trees and will definitely make this!!
You are such a joy! Thanks for the great recipe and giggles!
This looks simple and delicious. Thank you
So easy and SO delicious. I'll definitely be making it this summer.
OXO No Spill Ice Cube Tray and Dash Citrus juicer.
Great summer dessert.
I'm doing this right now!!! Thank you!!!
Baby!!!! I would be so addicted to that lime ice slush!!! 🍧
So easy and looks delicious!! Can’t wait to make this in the summer to cool off on the patio, on a sunny, hot day…
I'm so going to make these this summer.
Definitely going to make this! Thanks for the recipe, great video.
I can’t wait to make these!! Thanks Julia🇨🇦
Great for hot weather. Thank you
Can't wait to try this with my daughter! Thank you!
Looks so good. I’m going to do this this summer
It is always best to invert the micro plane and draw it over the fruit as the zest collects in the micro plane.
I love, love, love America's Test Kitchen!!! I am far from being a cook. I can barely boil water w/o setting the house on fire. I live vicariously through each and everyone of these kitchen geniuses! My favorite episode was when they were trying to make the perfect brownie...Mmmm. The funniest thing I came across on social media was finding a FB page dedicated to Christopher Kimball's chew. (lol) This refreshing lemon-lime ice dessert looks so tasty! I think Julia forgot to add the lime zest. I only bring it up bc this non-cooking demo might be the only thing I can actually make.
Awesome....must try.
Thanks, looks delicious and easy to make now that weather is heating up!
What fun to watch Julia at home. I laughed through all the ingredients!
Free up watching this show...AMAZING!
In the middle east they add rose water instead of tequila called heaven's ice.
Perfect for summer 👌
These look delicious. I'd like to make cherry lime or strawberry lime.
Definitely YES!!! Looks refreshing!! 🍸 Tequila in the ice, Grand Marnier as a floater!! Yum.

Thank you so much for sharing such a wonderful cool 😎 summer snack 👍🏻👏
Thank you
Mint and lime ice drink is delish
Didn't realize it was this easy to make this. Going to do this all summer long. 😊

Dash Citrus Juicer its at Bed Bath & Beyond
Lime is a favorite of mine. Yum
AWESOME I WILL MAKE IT
LOVE THIS! Reminds me of this place in Tempe, AZ called Snow (college days). Can’t wait to go make a batch!
Sounds wonderful for our hot, humid North Carolina summers
I won't imagine how it will test using a "mexican/colima/small " lime type instead . Super delicious! Thank you!
Snow idea is good ❤
Love it !!!!
Oh man am I gonna try this..
When I entertain, I like to serve a mini scoop of a refreshing ice between main course and dessert to clean the palate in place of a salad course. Yum
That looks delicious 😋
I got to give that a shot!
I Love This Channel! Thank You Ladies..I Keep My Television on Your Show Everyday all day lol This Is Fact's I Got Milk Street Magazine's I Ordered them.. These Magazines are Wonderful 👍💯
I always zest all my citrus, whether I need it all or not, because it's easy to dry and nice to have on hand. Looks great.

“Or if the kids don’t want it” lmao 😂 3:16
Looks tasty
My grandma told me that this is literally what her grandma used to make her during the Great Depression because it was free
Gin is also a great flavor addition...
Yummy
Julia, you are so fun! Can you freeze lemon/lime zest? How are you liking your kitchen remodle? Do you miss the cabnets? It's beautiful!
Interesting, very interesting.
It looks so tasty!😭
I agree with rolling or heating the fruit to get juice flowing. However, doesn't that only apply if you are squeezing? Wouldn’t using a reamer style juice, as you are here, break open all those little juice cells anyway? Perhaps the rolling is just muscle memory every time you pick up the fruit. Great recipe!
damn that sounds good / looks good for summer
Hi Julia . I'm from Dallas tx.I always watch y'all on T.V. I love the way y'all cook and bake. Keep up the good work. Many blessings too you and ur family.. I would love how too make a good dinner. Like meat loaf and chicken fried chicken... Please help... Thank you so much..
Yum
Nice glassware
I bought an electric juicer right now! How can I not?
I didn’t see you put in the lime zest, but I’m going to assume you did. Thanks for the recipe.

Saw this on Pluto TV when it was the full episode and can't recall if they show her adding it there either. It may be that it was not caught on camera, but likely it was added.

@@jasminemustafa3694 Not as likely as she has a full production crew to shoot these, in conjunction with ATK. Then again, we don't know for sure if she actually forgot, or not, though she has made these before most likely as these are what she cooks at home for her family.
Yum!!
Looks so good! Can't wait! Can you do something with watermelon?
So nice👍👏👌
If you dissolve the sugar in 1 cup hot water first, you are putting it in the freezer so it doesn't matter but the taste is much better. Imo
Hello from a fellow Rochesterian.
No zest sprinkle on top??
Nice! I just bought a ice shaver and a bunch of 4 inch paper sundae cups. Adult snow cones tomorrow!!
When do you add the zest? Should I zest the lemon as well? Looks great.
I forgot, you can mash up any fruit, banana with milk, strawberry with just sweetened water, and you can do the same thing, chop them yourself. You don't need to add lemon. Lemon is only for making lemonade ice. Try watermelon or cantaloupe or peaches. You can go on and on. Just sweeten the water generously so the cubes are easy to chop up. Chunks of fruit in your ice water is FUN.
Y’all any fruit you have leftover where that’s about to go. Juice them. Freeze them. Then you have them for as long as you want.
My lemon tree has lots of baby fruit, and the lime is loaded with blossoms, so I will tuck this away until they are ready to pick!
Hello ATK Greetings from California 😋🍋🍈
Liked it. What is the juicer you were using?
So what was the lime zest for?
This looks awesome. I want to try it. How can I make it without a food processor or blender?
My lemon tree and I thank you.
Please please please make a video of the Levain Bakery Cookies 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏
I make sugar free lemon ice with crystal light drink mix. Add alcohol and freeze in ice cube trays. Then I whirl up in my ninja and viola! Crushed ice, or snow! No calories except for the alcoloh.
I like the machine
Mmmmmmm!
what is the brand of those ice trays?
1:28 - That's a cool gadget. An obvious improvement that comes to mind when watching this video: marks to indicate how much juice you've made. Those can certainly be added by the end user by pouring measured amounts of water into the reservoir and marking the height in some fashion, but it would be even better if it were built in. At first it might seem like such marks would be very imprecise, because the reservoir is so wide and you usually only need a little bit of juice. But notice the inner pink part. This displaces a lot of the liquid, which means the height-per-volume of those first few reams are going to have greater precision. As a matter of fact, I can't think of another reason to have that pink cone in the middle. Maybe this thing does have marks already. That's... why else would it look like that? Edit: I think I found the particular juicer used in this video online. The one I'm looking at _does_ have volume marks. And even though the volume of the marks is at equal intervals, the lower ones have more space between them. Which suggests there's something in the middle that's wider at the bottom than the top, like this one. I think the reason we don't see the marks, nor are they mentioned, in this video is because the marks are right next to the logo, and since this isn't a product test video, ATC probably doesn't want to throw an endorsement in their direction. It hasn't gone through the usual rigors. So this all makes sense. I over-analyze everything. Since this is a thing, I've done it to this thing.

Without the Alcohol for me please...I'm in. Sounds so good. Yum. 😁 😁 😋 😋 Love Lime Juice.
Could applying this technique be used for making Granita?
Where to get the juicer and covered ice cube
Can stevia be used instead?
YOU ARE GOING BACK INTO THE STUDIO WITH OUR FAMILY, RIGHT???? I like these 'At Home' segments, but I need and want my studio lessons, please!!! Thank you 😊😊😊😊😊😊
I’m about to make lemon sorbet. I’ll make the ice instead
This may be just what I need, I’ve had a very bad tooth infection that spread to my jaw and the pain has been anywhere from unbearable to a moderate throb. Cold water helps, but I I just want something cold with flavor to it, so when I saw shaved flavored ice I jumped in that
