Description
A delicious and refreshing strawberry milk shake made with fresh or frozen strawberries.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ½ cups Strawberries (fresh or frozen)
- ⅓ cup Granulated Sugar
- ⅓ cup Water
- ½ tsp Vanilla (optional)
- 2–3 cups Milk of Choice
Instructions
- Add the fresh or frozen strawberries (stems removed) to a medium saucepan along with the water and sugar. Boil over medium heat for about 8-10 minutes until the strawberries break down.
- Once they’re very soft and have started to break down, remove from heat and allow to stop boiling.
- Using an immersion or regular blender, blend the syrup until smooth.
- Optional: strain out the seeds using a fine mesh strainer.
- Once the strawberry syrup has cooled, add 2-3 tablespoons to 1 cup of milk, adjusting to taste.
- Stir the milk and syrup, top with additional strawberry or whipped cream, and enjoy.
Notes
- This milkshake can be adjusted in sweetness by varying the sugar and strawberry syrup amount.
- For a creamier texture, use whole milk or a milk alternative with higher fat content.
