Ingredients- 7-8 fresh strawberries (adjust to your taste)
- 1 cup milk (approx. 200ml, regular white milk)
- 1-2 Tbsp strawberry jam (for sweetness, as a sugar substitute)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare your fresh strawberries. Select about 7-8 fresh strawberries from a pack, enough for a single serving. The freshness of the strawberries is key to the drink’s flavor, so choose ripe and vibrant ones.
Step 2
Carefully place the 7-8 washed strawberries into your blender. Remove the green tops and gently pat them dry before blending.
Step 3
To add a touch of sweetness to the natural strawberry flavor, add 1-2 tablespoons of strawberry jam. Using store-bought jam is convenient. Adjust the sweetness to your preference, but be mindful not to add too much, as it might overpower the fresh, tangy taste of the strawberries.
Step 4
Pour about 2/3 of the total 1 cup (approx. 130-140ml) of milk into the blender. Secure the lid tightly and blend until the strawberries, jam, and milk are well combined and smooth. Blend thoroughly until no lumps remain.
Step 5
Gently pour the blended strawberry milk into your chosen pretty glass. You can slightly tilt the glass or tap it to help the blended mixture settle nicely at the bottom.
Step 6
Now, let’s add another layer of flavor and texture! Slowly pour in the remaining 1/3 cup (approx. 60-70ml) of milk. This creates a wonderful swirl effect and a richer taste as the milk naturally mixes with the strawberry puree.
Step 7
Finally, it’s time for garnish to enhance the visual appeal and aroma! Thinly slice a strawberry and place it on the rim of the glass or on top of the drink. Add a mint sprig if you like, and voilà – your beautiful homemade fresh strawberry milk is ready, rivaling any café! Enjoy! 🙂
