Wash the lemons thoroughly and zest one of them to yield around 1 teaspoon of lemon zest. Set it aside.
Cut the lemons in half and juice them into a bowl. Remove any seeds from the juice. You should have around 1/4 cup of fresh lemon juice.
In a blender, add the milk, yogurt, sugar, fresh lemon juice, lemon zest, vanilla extract, and ice cubes.
Blend on high speed until the mixture is smooth and creamy, about 1-2 minutes.
Taste the shake and adjust the sweetness by adding more sugar if necessary. Blend again briefly to incorporate.
Pour the lemon shake into two tall glasses.
Garnish each glass with a fresh mint leaf and an optional lemon slice on the rim of the glass.
Serve immediately and enjoy the refreshing drink!
