Description
Enjoy a refreshing homemade Korean Strawberry Milk, blending fresh strawberries with creamy milk for a sweet and delightful drink. Perfectly chilled and optionally topped with whipped cream, it’s a treat for any occasion!
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
- 2 tablespoons sugar (adjust to taste)
- 1 cup milk (whole, almond, or your preferred type)
- 1 tablespoon sweetened condensed milk (optional, for extra creaminess)
- Ice cubes (optional, for serving)
- Whipped cream (optional, for topping)
Instructions
- Wash the strawberries thoroughly under cold water. Hull the strawberries by removing the green tops and slice them into quarters or smaller pieces.
- In a medium bowl, combine the sliced strawberries and sugar. Toss gently to coat the strawberries evenly with sugar. Let them sit for about 10-15 minutes to release their juices.
- After the strawberries have released their juices, mash them with a fork for a chunky texture or blend them in a blender for a smoother consistency.
- In a separate bowl or pitcher, pour in the milk. If using sweetened condensed milk, add it now and stir until well combined.
- Pour the strawberry puree into the milk mixture (or add the mashed strawberries directly). Stir gently to combine, creating a beautiful pink color throughout the drink.
- If desired, fill a glass with ice cubes and pour the strawberry milk mixture over the ice. Top with whipped cream and garnish with fresh strawberry slices or a drizzle of strawberry syrup.
- Grab a straw or spoon and enjoy your homemade strawberry milk! Store any leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 2 days, stirring before serving.
Notes
- Feel free to experiment with different types of milk such as almond, oat, or coconut for unique flavors.
- Add a splash of vanilla extract or a pinch of cinnamon for extra flavor.
- For a milkshake version, blend in a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
- You can also mix in other fruits like bananas or blueberries for a fruity twist.
