Description
A refreshing strawberry frappuccino made with fresh strawberries and creamy milk, perfect for warm days!
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup fresh ripe strawberries, hulled and sliced if large
- 1 cup milk (whole milk recommended, or almond/oat milk for dairy-free)
- 1/2 cup ice cubes
- 2 tablespoons sugar or simple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Whipped cream (regular or coconut whipped cream for dairy-free)
- Fresh strawberry slice (for garnish)
- Additional mix-ins: scoop of vanilla or unflavored protein powder, 1 teaspoon cocoa powder, handful of blueberries or raspberries, brewed matcha tea (to replace some milk)
Instructions
- Clean and hull about one cup of fresh strawberries. If they are large, slice into halves or quarters to help them blend evenly and release their juices.
- In a powerful blender, combine the strawberries, 1 cup milk, 1/2 cup ice cubes, 2 tablespoons sugar or simple syrup, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Blend until smooth and creamy, ensuring the ice is fully crushed to achieve the ideal frappuccino texture.
- Taste your frappuccino and adjust sweetness by adding more sugar or honey if desired. Blend again. If the blend is too thick, add a splash more milk to loosen it up.
- Pour the frappuccino into your favorite glass. Optionally, top with whipped cream and garnish with a fresh strawberry slice for an elegant finishing touch.
Notes
- This frappuccino can be customized with various mix-ins based on your preferences.
- For a dairy-free option, use almond or oat milk and coconut whipped cream.
