This Vegan Strawberry Milk is a refreshing, creamy plant-based drink made with fresh or frozen strawberries, maple syrup, vanilla, and oat milk. It’s lightly cooked to enhance the strawberry flavor, blended into a smooth puree, and served chilled over ice—perfect for a healthy and delicious dairy-free treat.

Ingredients

Strawberry Milk Ingredients

  • 1 cup strawberries, fresh or frozen, hulled and washed
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup or agave syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups oat milk, preferably barista blend or any creamy vegan milk of choice
  • Ice for serving

Instructions

  1. Cook the Strawberries: Place the hulled and washed strawberries in a small saucepan with a splash of water. Bring the mixture to a boil while stirring, then reduce the heat and simmer for 5-10 minutes, stirring occasionally until the strawberries are soft and juicy.
  2. Add Sweetener and Flavor: Remove the saucepan from heat. Stir in the maple syrup and vanilla extract. Taste the mixture and add more maple syrup if a sweeter flavor is desired, depending on the natural sweetness of the strawberries.
  3. Blend the Strawberry Puree: Use a handheld blender or transfer the mixture to a blender to puree until smooth. Allow the strawberry puree to cool completely.
  4. Assemble the Drink: Divide the cooled strawberry puree equally between two tall glasses. Fill each glass with ice, then pour the cold oat milk over the ice and strawberry mixture.
  5. Serve: Optionally, top with chopped fresh strawberries, stir gently with a straw, and serve immediately for a refreshing vegan strawberry milk drink.

Notes

  • You can adjust the sweetness by varying the amount of maple syrup based on the natural sweetness of your strawberries.
  • Use barista-style oat milk or any creamy vegan milk alternative for the best texture and flavor.
  • This drink is best served immediately after preparation for optimal freshness.
  • Frozen strawberries work well if fresh strawberries are not available.
  • For a colder drink, chill the strawberry puree before assembling or add more ice.
