# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • It comes together in under five minutes with no blender, no mess, just shake and pour.
  • The coconut milk makes it creamy without any dairy, so it feels indulgent but stays light.
  • You control the sweetness and can adjust it every single time based on your mood.
  • It looks like something you'd pay too much for, but costs a fraction to make at home.
02 -
  • Do not use canned coconut milk unless you thin it out significantly, or your drink will taste too thick and heavy.
  • If your strawberry syrup is very sweet, start with less and taste as you go, you can always add more but you cannot take it back.
  • Cold ingredients are non negotiable here, room temperature coconut milk will make the drink taste flat and less refreshing.
03 -
  • Shake the coconut milk carton well before using it, the cream can separate and you want it smooth.
  • If you make homemade syrup, let it cool completely before adding it to the drink or it will melt your ice too fast.
  • For a fun twist, freeze strawberry slices in your ice cubes so they look even prettier as they melt.
