Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Let’s get started by gathering all the ingredients needed to make delicious fresh strawberry milk. This recipe is for 2 servings.
Step 2
First, gently wash 13 fresh strawberries under cold running water and pat them dry. Remove the green tops from the washed strawberries. Set aside one strawberry with its stem intact for garnish.
Step 3
Now, it’s time to cut the strawberries, which is crucial for the taste and texture of your fresh strawberry milk. Slice the strawberries vertically into long pieces.
Step 4
Next, to ensure you get satisfying strawberry chunks in every sip, cut the strawberries into bite-sized pieces that are not too small. Aim for pieces about 0.5cm to 1cm thick.
Step 5
Place the cut strawberry pieces into a clean bowl. Add a small amount of lemon juice for an extra burst of freshness. Lemon juice helps maintain the strawberries’ vibrancy and enhances their aroma.
Step 6
Sprinkle 10g of sugar evenly over the strawberry pieces. The sugar will draw out the natural sweetness of the strawberries and release some of their juice, creating a lovely strawberry syrup-like consistency.
Step 7
Gently mix the strawberries and sugar together with a spatula or spoon. Be careful not to mash the strawberries; ensure they are evenly coated for the best flavor.
Step 8
Sprinkle another 10g of sugar over the strawberries. Using the sugar in two additions helps ensure the sweetness is evenly distributed and results in a richer strawberry flavor.
Step 9
Mix gently again. After a short while, you’ll notice the sugar dissolving and a clear strawberry juice starting to form. This is the ‘real’ strawberry juice! Let the strawberries macerate for about 20 minutes. This process concentrates their flavor and aroma.
Step 10
After 20 minutes, check on your macerated strawberries. You’ll see a generous amount of rich strawberry juice has accumulated. This is the star of your fresh strawberry milk – the ‘strawberries in sugar’ are ready!
Step 11
Spoon the finished ‘strawberries in sugar’ into your chosen pretty glasses. Since this recipe is for two servings, divide the strawberries evenly between two glasses. Filling about one-third of each glass with strawberries is ideal.
Step 12
Carefully pour fresh milk over the strawberries in each glass, filling it to the top. This completes your fresh strawberry milk, or fresh strawberry latte! Letting some strawberries float to the top makes for a visually appealing drink.
Step 13
Remember the strawberry we saved for garnish? Gently place it on the rim of the glass. A cute garnish adds a lovely finishing touch!
Step 14
Serving the fresh strawberry milk in a pretty cherry blossom patterned glass makes the pink color look even more charming and lovely! It’s a feast for the eyes as well as the palate.
Step 15
Homemade fresh strawberry milk is brimming with fresh strawberries, so you can enjoy the delightful texture of strawberry chunks with every sip. It feels like drinking a whole strawberry field!
Step 16
This real fresh strawberry milk and latte recipe uses simple ingredients and is incredibly easy to make. Strawberry season is drawing to a close, so take this opportunity to make it at home!
