Ingredients
(Serves 2)
- 1 cup fresh or frozen strawberries (hulled and washed)
- 1½ cups cold milk (dairy or plant-based like almond, oat, or soy milk)
- 1–2 tablespoons sugar, honey, or maple syrup (optional, adjust to taste)
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract (optional, for extra flavor)
- A handful of ice cubes (if using fresh strawberries)
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Ingredients
- If using fresh strawberries, wash them thoroughly and remove the green tops (hull). Cut larger strawberries into halves or quarters for easier blending.
- If using frozen strawberries, there’s no need to thaw them—just toss them straight into the blender.
Step 2: Blend the Drink
- In a blender, combine the strawberries, cold milk, and sweetener (if using). Add vanilla extract if desired for a hint of aromatic flavor.
- Blend on high speed for 30–45 seconds, or until the mixture is smooth and creamy. If the drink is too thick, add a splash more milk to reach your desired consistency.
Step 3: Adjust Sweetness and Chill
- Taste the drink and adjust the sweetness by adding more sugar, honey, or maple syrup as needed. Blend again briefly to incorporate.
- If you prefer your drink extra cold, add a handful of ice cubes and blend for another 10–15 seconds until the ice is crushed and the drink is frosty.
Step 4: Serve and Enjoy
- Pour the strawberry milk drink into tall glasses.
- Garnish with a fresh strawberry on the rim or a sprinkle of cinnamon for an elegant touch.
- Serve immediately with a straw and enjoy the creamy, fruity goodness!
Tips & Variations
- Add Yogurt: For a creamier texture and a slight tang, blend in ¼ cup of plain or vanilla yogurt.
- Make it Healthy: Skip the added sweetener and use ripe, sweet strawberries for natural sweetness. You can also add a tablespoon of chia seeds or flaxseeds for an extra nutritional boost.
- Fruity Twist: Experiment with other fruits like bananas, mangoes, or blueberries for a fun variation.
- For Kids: Top with a dollop of whipped cream or a drizzle of chocolate syrup for a kid-friendly treat.
