A creamy, fruity milkshake layered like a trifle in a jar, combining rich coconut cream, mixed berries, and a touch of vanilla for a quick and indulgent treat.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup (120 ml) canned coconut cream (full-fat recommended)
  • 1 cup (150 g) mixed berries (fresh or frozen; strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, blackberries)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup (120 ml) milk or dairy-free milk (almond milk or oat milk recommended)
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (adjust to sweetness preference)
  • 45 ice cubes
  • Optional: crumbled vanilla or coconut-flavored biscuit or cake pieces

Instructions

  1. Prepare the berries: thaw frozen berries slightly or wash and hull fresh berries (about 5 minutes).
  2. Whip the coconut cream (optional): scoop coconut cream into a bowl and whisk lightly to loosen (2 minutes).
  3. Blend the base: combine coconut cream, vanilla extract, milk, honey or maple syrup, and ice cubes in a blender. Blend on medium speed until smooth and creamy (1-2 minutes).
  4. Add the berries: add about half of the berries to the blender and pulse a couple of times to keep some chunks for texture.
  5. Layer the jar: spoon a few whole berries into the bottom of each jar, pour in some of the coconut cream berry milkshake mixture, and repeat layers if desired, finishing with berries on top.
  6. Add biscuit or cake crumbs (optional): sprinkle crumbled cake pieces between layers for an authentic trifle feel.
  7. Serve immediately with a straw or small spoon, or chill for 10-15 minutes for a thicker texture.

Notes

Use full-fat coconut cream for the richest texture. Do not overblend berries to keep chunks for texture. Adjust sweetness to taste. Thaw frozen berries slightly to avoid icy texture. Optional cake crumbs add authentic trifle feel but omit for gluten-free version. Chill for thicker shake or serve immediately.
