1 can (6 ounces) frozen lemonade concentrate, thawed
1 tub (8 ounces) whipped topping (Cool Whip), thawed
1 teaspoon lemon zest (optional)
Instructions
1. If using homemade graham cracker crust, combine 1 1/2 cups crushed graham crackers, 1/3 cup melted butter, and 2 tablespoons sugar. Press into a pie dish and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
2. In a large bowl, mix sweetened condensed milk and thawed lemonade concentrate until smooth.
3. Fold in whipped topping gently using a rubber spatula to maintain fluffiness.
4. Spoon the mixture into the prepared graham cracker crust and smooth the top.
5. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.

Notes
For stronger lemon flavor, add 1 teaspoon lemon extract to the filling.
This pie freezes well—just wrap tightly and thaw in the fridge overnight before serving.
Homemade whipped cream can replace Cool Whip—use 1 cup heavy cream and 2 tablespoons sugar.
