Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced (about 150 grams)
- 1 cup (240 ml) full-fat coconut milk
- 1/2 cup (120 ml) unsweetened almond milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1–2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (adjust to taste)
- 1 cup ice cubes
- Optional: pinch of sea salt
- Optional: fresh mint leaves for garnish
Instructions
- Wash, hull, and slice about 1 cup of fresh strawberries. If using frozen, thaw slightly for easier blending.
- Combine strawberries, full-fat coconut milk, unsweetened almond milk, vanilla extract, honey or maple syrup, and ice cubes in a high-speed blender.
- Blend on low speed to break down ice and fruit, then increase to high speed until the mixture is smooth, creamy, and vibrant pink.
- Taste and adjust sweetness by adding more honey or maple syrup if desired, then pulse briefly to mix.
- Optional: strain the drink through a fine mesh strainer to remove strawberry seeds.
- Pour into chilled glasses and garnish with fresh mint leaves or a strawberry slice. Serve immediately.
Notes
Use full-fat coconut milk for best creaminess. Frozen strawberries can be used to chill the drink without watering it down. Sweeten gradually to taste. Blend liquids first, then fruit and ice to avoid blender jams. Avoid overblending to preserve fresh flavors.
