Gradually add the softened vanilla frozen yogurt to the lemonade mixture, blending gently until fully combined and smooth.
-
Gently fold in the whipped topping until the mixture is uniform in color and texture, being careful not to deflate the mixture.

Place the pie in the freezer and freeze until firm, for at least four hours or until set.
