Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup frozen strawberries: Provides bold fruit flavor and icy texture
- 1/2 cup vanilla yogurt (Yulu or Greek-style): Adds creaminess and probiotics
- 3/4 cup vanilla almond milk: Enhances vanilla flavor and keeps it dairy-light
- 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract: Deepens the vanilla aroma and taste
Instructions
- If using fresh strawberries, freeze them ahead of time for best texture.
- Add frozen strawberries, vanilla yogurt, almond milk, and vanilla extract to a blender.
- Start blending on low and gradually increase speed to high.
- Blend until completely smooth and creamy, about 45 seconds to 1 minute.
- Taste and adjust sweetness or thickness as needed.
- Pour into a glass and serve immediately. Optionally garnish with a fresh strawberry or granola.
Notes
- Use full-fat yogurt for a richer texture.
- Add a frozen banana for extra creaminess.
- Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 24 hours; shake before drinking.
