Ingredients strawberry milk

Who knows what’s in store-bought strawberry milk. But this strawberry milk recipe features real strawberries, your milk of choice, and a little vanilla to boost the flavor. It tastes so smooth and pure that it’s worth making at home! Here’s everything you need for this recipe:

• Choice of milk: Use cow’s milk or oat milk for non-dairy products
• strawberries: fresh or frozen! If possible, refrigerate fresh berries so the drink is colder when it comes out of the blender
• Maple Syrup or Honey: or the sweetness of your choice, like agave syrup
• Vanilla: optional, but it adds a nice nuance
• Pinch of salt: it brings out the flavors

How to make strawberry milk: some tips

There are several ways to make strawberry milk. We prefer the quicker and easier route, which is toss everything in a blender and whip! However, there are a few things to keep in mind with this method:

• Combine strawberries, sweetener, vanilla and salt. See recipe below for quantities.
• Pass through a fine sieve. You can skip this step if you want to drink right away. But the texture without constraint is quite thick: it separates quickly and has a floating strawberry flesh. Pass it through a sieve and the texture will be nice and smooth and fluffy. It’s worth the extra time!
• Cold. After blending, the milk should not be completely cold, especially if using room temperature strawberries. Chill the milk or add a few ice cubes to the blender and blend before straining.

storage information

Homemade strawberry milk has different storage instructions than store-bought milk. Here’s what you need to know about duration:

• Keep refrigerated for 3 to 4 days. It’s better the closer to when you did it.
• It separates naturally: just shake before serving! We like to keep it in a sealed jar: then just shake it before pouring it into a glass.
