Pink Lemonade Pie is the kind of dessert that feels like sunshine on a plate. Light, tangy, and sweet with a refreshing citrus twist, this no-bake pie is the perfect treat for warm days, backyard gatherings, or anytime you want a little burst of summer flavor. With its cheerful pink hue and creamy texture, it’s as pretty as it is delicious.
The magic of this pie is how easy it is to make. With just a few ingredients – pink lemonade concentrate, sweetened condensed milk, whipped topping, and a graham cracker crust, you get a silky smooth filling that sets beautifully in the fridge or freezer. There’s no need to turn on the oven, which makes it a go-to dessert when the weather is hot.
The flavor is a nostalgic nod to childhood lemonade stands, but with a creamy twist that feels grown-up enough for dinner parties. The lemonade gives the filling a bright, zesty kick that balances out the sweetness of the milk and whipped topping. The graham cracker crust adds just the right amount of crunch and a subtle toasty note that pairs perfectly with the cool filling.
You can dress up your pink lemonade pie with slices of fresh lemon, a dollop of whipped cream, or a sprinkle of crushed cookies or berries. Serve it straight from the fridge for a soft, creamy bite, or freeze it for a firmer, ice-cream-like texture.
This pie is quick to assemble, easy to transport, and always a hit with guests. It’s especially great for potlucks, birthdays, baby showers, or any event where you want something that looks festive but doesn’t require hours in the kitchen.
Pink Lemonade Pie is proof that simple desserts can still steal the show – it’s light, lovely, and perfect for summer.

Pink lemonade? Sounds weird but actually, it’s really good! My kids devoured it!
Eh, it was fine but I’d rather have a chocolate cake instead. Just my opinion.
Graham cracker crust, really? Why not a chocolate one? This pie ain’t all that.
I think Graham cracker crust is classic for this kind of pie! Chocolate could be too rich. Just saying!
Does it have to be Cool Whip? Can I use real whipped cream?
Super easy to make! My kids loved helping me mix everything. Thanks for the recipe!
I tried this recipe too, and it’s a hit! Not just with kids, but adults love it too! So refreshing!
I tried making this but the Cool Whip just wouldn’t fold in right. Not sure what I did wrong.
This pie is super easy to make and sooo delicious! I love pink lemonade!
I’ve made this pie for parties before, and everyone loves it! It’s a total hit!
Yummy treat for summer days! Everyone loved it at the picnic 🙂
This sounds so refreshing! Perfect for hot days. I’m definitely trying it!
5 stars all the way! Easy to make and my guests were impressed! Will make again!
Disaster! My pie never set and tasted way too sweet. Never trying again.
It didn’t set properly in my freezer… spent 3 hours waiting! ugh!
I had the same issue! I think it might be my freezer too, it’s pretty old. Maybe try letting it sit longer next time?
Yummy! I added some strawberries on top. Would suggest doing that!
Can you use real lemons instead? I prefer fresh ingredients. Just asking!
This is such a quick recipe! Was perfect for my kid’s birthday party!
I made this with orange juice instead… YUCK! Not the same at all.
So easy to make! Made it for my daughter’s birthday, and she was thrilled!
I don’t know about mixing lemonade with pie. Seemed weird but I tried it anyway and wow!
Idk, it seemed kinda weird mixing lemonade with milk. Are those flavors supposed to go together?
Too creamy for me. I prefer my pies less fluffy.
Pink lemonade is the best! My new favorite dessert. Yum! 😋
This seems too sweet for my taste. How about adding some tangy stuff?
I’ve tried this pie and it was sooo good! Perfect for summer BBQs. 🌞
This was such a hit at my family gathering! Everyone loved it!
Doesn’t this recipe just seem a bit lazy? You just mix and freeze it?
I don’t think it’s lazy! Sometimes simple is best, especially for a hot day. This pie sounds refreshing!
NO. This looks disgusting. Who puts lemonade in a pie? 🤢
Absolutely loved this pie! So refreshing for summer gatherings!
Too sweet for my taste. Next time, I’ll try it with less condensed milk.
I don’t like Cool Whip. Can I use real whipped cream instead?
Yeah, you can definitely use real whipped cream! It might change the texture a bit, but it’ll taste great!
This pie is sooo good! It was a hit at our family BBQ. Will make again!
I don’t like Cool Whip. Can I use whipped cream instead? Either way, pie looks good.
Absolutely, whipped cream will work just fine! Just make sure to whip it to stiff peaks. Enjoy the pie!
I’m not into sweet stuff but my sister loved it! So I guess it’s good for some people.
Very good, but I added some lemon zest for more zing! 👍
Mmmm… pie! ☁️🍋
I tried this recipe but my pie came out way too sweet. Maybe less condensed milk next time.
I agree! The condensed milk can really make it sweet. Tried it with less and it was way better!
Maybe you just got a ripe batch of lemonade concentrate? Either way, I’m gonna try adding more lemon next time.
