Creamy & Fresh Strawberry Milkshake (DAIRY-FREE)
I never was a huge fan of strawberry milkshakes growing up because I would find the strawberry flavour to be quite artificial and too sweet. That being said, we were given a huge bag of ripe frozen strawberries a few weeks ago that needed to be eaten and so, this delicious, creamy, perfectly-sweet strawberry milkshake was born!! It also happens to be dairy-free and refined sugar free.
This recipe has quickly become a staple in my weekly rotation of snacks and desserts and I hope it becomes the same for you.
Ingredients
- 2.5 cups ripe strawberries, frozen* 
- 200ml canned full-fat coconut milk (1/2 a can) 
- 1/4 cup oat or almond milk** 
- 1 large ripe banana 
- 1 tsp vanilla extract 
- 2-3 tbsp raw honey 
- Pinch salt 
- Add ingredients to a blender in the order listed. 
- Blend on high until smooth and well combined. Add more almond/oat milk if needed to get things moving in the blender. 
- Taste and adjust to your preference. Add more strawberries for a stronger strawberry flavour or more honey for extra sweetness. 
- Divide among 2 glass mugs or cups and enjoy! 
*Fresh, frozen strawberries are best for optimal flavour but bagged frozen ones will also work well.
**The additional oat or almond milk is optional and this depends on the strength of your blender as yours may need a bit more liquid to get moving along. Add a little at a time as we want to maintain the thick and creamy consistency!
