What is strawberry milk made of?
This recipe is made of two components: homemade strawberry syrup and milk.
- Strawberry syrup: On the stovetop simmer a mixture of strawberries, sugar, and water. Once thickened, strain out the solids and you’re left with a sweet, bright red strawberry syrup.
- Milk: You can use any type of milk, dairy or nondairy. I typically use 2% milk or unsweetened vanilla almond milk. Note: If you’re using a sweetened plant-based milk you might want to add a little less syrup. Taste it and adjust as necessary.
Stir the chilled syrup into a glass of milk and drink up!
Other uses for strawberry syrup
This recipe makes 1-½ cups of strawberry syrup. This is enough for about 6 glasses of strawberry milk. I often use some syrup for making strawberry milk and then use the leftover syrup for topping pancakes, waffles, oatmeal, or yogurt.
