Ingredients
Scale
1 cup Strawberry Açaí Base (or equal parts white grape juice, water, strawberry puree, and green coffee extract if making from scratch)
1/2 cup Coconut Milk (unsweetened is best)
1/4 cup frozen strawberries
1/4 cup frozen strawberries and/or dragon fruit pieces (for garnish)
1 teaspoon liquid sweetener (adjust to taste, e.g., simple syrup or agave)
Instructions
Combine the Strawberry Açaí Base, coconut milk, and liquid sweetener in a shaker or jar.
Add ice to the shaker.
Shake well until the mixture is thoroughly chilled and slightly frothy.
Pour the mixture into a serving glass filled with fresh ice.
Add the frozen strawberries and dragon fruit pieces to the drink.
Serve immediately.
Notes
For a lighter flavor, use less sweetener or substitute with stevia.
If you do not have the specific base, you can approximate it using 1/2 cup white grape juice, 1/4 cup water, 2 tablespoons strawberry puree, and a few drops of liquid green coffee extract (optional).
Use canned, full-fat coconut milk for a creamier texture, or carton coconut milk for a lighter version.
