#857: Strawberries and Cream Frappe

 

I wanted so much to like this recipe.  I honestly thought I would.  I just didn't.  It didn't do anything for me.  Fortunately, my co-worker and friend, Lora liked it so she drank it instead.  (I'm glad it didn't go to waste!) 

2 cups unsweetened coconut milk

1/3 cup strawberries, frozen

6 medium strawberries,fresh, roughly chopped

1 tsp, vanilla extract

1/2 tsp. stevia (one packet)

 

Freeze coconut milk in a shallow dish. Once frozen, leave on counter to thaw a bit or microwave for about 30 seconds until it's thawed enough for your blender to handle. Just don't overheat it.

In a microwave safe dish add the frozen strawberries and defrost for about 45 seconds. Mash strawberries with a fork. You are looking for the juice of the strawberries.

 

In a blender add coconut milk, vanilla extract, frozen strawberries with the juice, fresh strawberries and stevia. Crush/blend until incorporated about 2 minutes.
