Description
A refreshing, dairy-free smoothie made with just three core ingredients: frozen strawberries, coconut milk, and honey. It offers a thick, slushy texture and vibrant pink color, perfect for hot days or post-workout refueling.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups (300g) frozen strawberries
- 1 can (400ml) full-fat canned coconut milk
- 2 tablespoons (30ml) honey or maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon lime juice (optional)
- 5–6 mint leaves (optional)
- 1 handful spinach (optional)
- 1 scoop protein powder (optional)
Instructions
- Ensure your blender is clean and dry. Break up any clumps of frozen strawberries.
- Pour the coconut milk into the blender first to help the blades spin freely.
- Add the frozen strawberries, along with any optional add-ins like lime juice, mint, or spinach.
- Drizzle in the honey, starting with 1 tablespoon if unsure about sweetness.
- Blend on low speed to break up the fruit, then gradually increase to high. Blend for 45-60 seconds until completely smooth.
- Taste and adjust sweetness or tang as needed, blending for an additional 10 seconds if necessary.
- Pour immediately into tall glasses and serve. Garnish with a strawberry slice or mint sprig if desired.
Notes
Use frozen strawberries for a thick, slushy texture; fresh strawberries will make the drink watery. Shake the coconut milk can vigorously before opening to ensure the cream and water are mixed. Drink immediately as the smoothie separates quickly. Do not freeze leftover smoothie as it will become icy.
