Korean Strawberry Milk: A Delicious Recipe to Try at Home

Enjoy a refreshing Korean Strawberry Milk, a delightful mix of fresh strawberries and creamy milk. This sweet, fruity drink is perfect for warm days or as a treat any time of the year.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
  • 2 tablespoons sugar (adjust to taste)
  • 1 cup milk (whole, almond, or any milk of your choice)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
  • Ice cubes (optional)

Instructions

  1. Wash the strawberries thoroughly under cold water to remove any dirt or impurities.
  2. Hull the strawberries by removing the green tops using a knife or a huller.
  3. Slice the strawberries into small pieces to help them release their juices.
  4. In a medium bowl, combine the sliced strawberries and sugar. Use a fork or potato masher to gently mash the strawberries, breaking them down slightly to release their juices.
  5. Let the strawberry mixture sit for about 10-15 minutes to allow the sugar to draw out the juices, creating a delicious syrup.
  6. In a separate bowl or measuring cup, pour in the milk. If using vanilla extract, add it to the milk now.
  7. Stir the milk and vanilla extract together until well combined. Adjust sweetness with additional sugar if desired.
  8. Take a glass and add a few ice cubes if you prefer your drink chilled.
  9. Pour the strawberry mixture into the glass, including all the delicious juices.
  10. Slowly pour the milk over the strawberry mixture, creating a layered effect or mixing for a uniform color.
  11. Stir gently with a spoon or straw to combine the strawberry syrup with the milk, creating beautiful swirls.
  12. Admire your creation before enjoying!

Notes

  • Adjust the sugar based on the sweetness of the strawberries and your personal preference.
  • This drink is best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in the refrigerator for a short time if needed.
