Ingredients
Ingredients
- 1.5 cup fresh or frozen strawberries hulled, if using frozen no need to thaw
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk or milk of choice
- 0.5 cup plain Greek yogurt for creaminess and protein
- 1 tbsp dried hibiscus flowers loose or from tea bags
- 1 tbsp raw honey or maple syrup, adjust to taste
- 1 tsp fresh lemon juice optional, for brightness
- 0.5 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup ice cubes omit if using all frozen fruit
Notes
Storage: Best enjoyed immediately. Leftovers can be stored in a sealed jar in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours; shake or stir well before drinking as separation may occur. Make-Ahead: Pre-measure all dry and frozen ingredients the night before for a quick morning blend. Variations: For a vegan version, use coconut yogurt and maple syrup. Add a scoop of collagen peptides or vanilla protein powder for an extra nutrient boost. For a thicker texture, use all frozen strawberries and omit the ice.
