This delightful strawberry milk recipe, made with fresh strawberry purée, is a real treat! If you love strawberries, you must try this sweet and tasty recipe.

This Korean style strawberry milk became popular at cafes in Korea a few years ago and it's taken over TikTok lately because it's ridiculously pretty and tastes great!

This recipe requires minimal ingredients and is easy to make. It takes a few minutes for the berries to cool off after they've been heated to create a jammy texture, but it's fully worth it.

Ingredients for Strawberry Milk

Strawberries - I recommend using fresh, in-season strawberries for this recipe. When strawberries are at their peak, they are wonderful. If you want to make this out of season, I'd use frozen berries and cook them a minute or two longer.

Milk of Your Choice - I used skim milk for this recipe, but you can use whatever milk you'd like. I think this would taste great with coconut milk or oat milk, but it would also work with soy milk or almond milk too!

Sugar - I used granulated sugar, but you can also use raw sugar, brown sugar, or another sweetener like honey.

Instructions

Cut the strawberries into small pieces and mash them with the sugar till they are slightly broken down.

Macerated strawberries in a small pot.

Add the berries to a small pot and simmer them on medium-high heat for 5 to 6 minutes or until they are jammy.

Allow the berries to cool in the refrigerator for 10 minutes before mixing them with the milk.

Strawberry Syrup in a small pot.

Pour them over some ice and garnish with additional chopped strawberries if desired.
