The strawberry milk recipe I grew up with consisted of a thick red syrup my mom found at the grocery store mixed into milk. It seemed fine at the time, but when my daughter asked for strawberry milk I wanted to see if I could find a slightly healthier version. Since we have lots of fresh berries on hand this time of year, it wasn’t too much of a stretch to attempt to make it myself.
I started by making my own homemade strawberry syrup for my strawberry milk recipe. Then I let it cool and blended it with regular milk. It was pretty simple all in all, and the flavor was way better than anything I could buy at the store. To cap them off, we rimmed some little glasses with sanding sugar and made these great drinks.
