A bright, refreshing, and creamy pink drink made with coconut milk and freeze-dried strawberries, perfect for a quick indulgent treat that’s dairy-free and vegan-friendly.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/4 cup freeze-dried strawberries
  • 1 cup coconut milk (full-fat canned or carton variety)
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1โ€“2 tablespoons simple syrup or agave nectar (or honey)
  • 1 cup ice cubes
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Optional: 1 teaspoon fresh lemon or lime juice

Instructions

  1. Place 1/4 cup freeze-dried strawberries in the blender. Add 1/2 cup water and blend on high until the berries break down into a vibrant pink liquid with a smooth, syrup-like consistency. Pulse if you prefer chunkier texture.
  2. Pour in 1 cup of coconut milk. For richest flavor, use full-fat canned coconut milk straight from the fridge (shake can well before opening). Blend for 15โ€“20 seconds until fully combined.
  3. Add 1โ€“2 tablespoons of simple syrup or chosen sweetener and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract. Blend briefly to incorporate. Taste and adjust sweetness if needed.
  4. Add 1 cup of ice cubes to the blender and pulse a few times until the drink is chilled but not overly crushed. Add more ice and blend longer if icier texture is desired.
  5. Optional: Add 1 teaspoon fresh lemon or lime juice and blend for a few seconds for a subtle citrus brightness.
  6. Optional: Pour the drink through a fine mesh strainer into your glass for an ultra-smooth texture without berry bits.
  7. Serve immediately in glasses and enjoy.

Notes

Use full-fat canned coconut milk for the creamiest texture. Freeze-dried strawberries provide vibrant color and concentrated flavor. Adjust sweetness gradually to balance tartness. Avoid over-blending ice to prevent slushiness. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge up to 24 hours and shake before serving.
