07 -
Fresh strawberries sliced up
08 -
Some whipped cream
09 -
Optional crumbled shortbread cookies
# Instructions:
01 -
Throw half a cup of cleaned strawberries into a blender and smooth them out. To get rid of seeds, strain the mix through a fine sieve if you want.
02 -
Put milk, strawberry mix, vanilla ice cream, ice, sugar, and vanilla into a blender. Blend it on high until it's creamy with no ice left, about 30 to 45 seconds.
03 -
If it's too thick, add a bit more milk. If it's thin, toss in more ice or ice cream and blend again till you like the feel.
04 -
Pour your mixture into a tall glass, then pile on whipped cream like a fluffy cloud.
05 -
Put sliced strawberries on top of the cream, and if you want, sprinkle with crumbled shortbread for extra crunch.
06 -
Stick in a straw and serve right away while it’s cold and frosty. Drink it fresh before the ice melts.
# Notes:
01 -
Making this at home lets you pick how sweet it gets and saves cash compared to coffee shops.
02 -
To make it look cool, serve in a clear cup with a dome lid like Starbucks drinks.
03 -
No coffee here, so it’s great for kids or anyone avoiding caffeine.
