For the frappuccino:
1 1/2 cups frozen strawberries
1/2 cup milk (dairy or plant-based)
1/2 cup heavy cream or vanilla-flavored coffee creamer
1/4 cup granulated sugar (adjust to taste)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup ice cubes
For topping:
Whipped cream
Strawberry syrup (optional, for drizzle)
1. Gather all ingredients: frozen strawberries, milk, heavy cream or coffee creamer, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and ice cubes.
2. Blend the ingredients on high until smooth and creamy.
3. Taste and adjust sweetness with more sugar or thin with milk as needed, then blend briefly.
4. Pour into a tall glass and top with whipped cream.
5. Optionally drizzle strawberry syrup on top and serve immediately with a straw.
For an extra burst of strawberry flavor, add 1–2 tablespoons of strawberry jam to the blender along with the other ingredients. It enhances the fruitiness and adds a subtle richness to the drink.
If you're looking for a vegan option, swap the heavy cream for coconut cream and use almond or oat milk. This variation not only maintains the creamy texture but also adds a subtle nutty flavor that complements the strawberries beautifully.
For a more decadent treat, sprinkle some crushed graham crackers or chocolate shavings on top of the whipped cream. These additions add texture and make the drink feel like a strawberry shortcake in a glass.
