Description
A visually stunning, two-toned strawberry and coconut smoothie that is healthy, refreshing, and easy to make in under 10 minutes. This copycat recipe features a thick pink strawberry layer topped with a creamy white coconut layer.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup (150g) frozen strawberries
- 1/2 cup (120g) vanilla yogurt (or plain Greek yogurt with vanilla extract)
- 1/2 cup (120ml) strawberry juice or water
- 1 teaspoon lime juice
- 1–2 teaspoons honey or maple syrup (optional)
- 1/2 cup (120ml) full-fat canned coconut milk
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon coconut cream (optional)
- Ice cubes (optional, if strawberries aren’t frozen enough)
Instructions
- Prep ingredients: Break apart frozen strawberries and measure out yogurt, lime juice, honey, and coconut milk.
- Blend the pink layer: Combine frozen strawberries, vanilla yogurt, strawberry juice (or water), lime juice, and honey in a blender. Blend on high until completely smooth and thick.
- Prepare the coconut layer: In a separate bowl, whisk together canned coconut milk, vanilla extract, and coconut cream (if using) until smooth and creamy.
- Assemble the drink: Pour the pink strawberry mixture into a tall glass or mason jar, filling it about 3/4 full.
- Layer the coconut: Hold a spoon upside down just above the surface of the pink layer. Slowly pour the coconut mixture over the back of the spoon to create a distinct white layer on top.
- Garnish and serve: Garnish with fresh strawberry slices or mint. Serve immediately with a straw.
Notes
Use frozen strawberries for a thick, slushie-like consistency. Ensure the pink layer is very cold and thick to prevent the layers from mixing. Pour the coconut layer slowly over the back of a spoon. The pink layer can be stored in the fridge for up to 2 days, but the coconut layer should be made fresh.
