Expert Tips

• You can add fresh strawberries or frozen ones too. Make sure strawberries are rinsed well, hulled before use.
• If you want to cut down icecream then replace it with frozen milk.
• Adding sugar is optional depends on the sweetness of the fruit.
• Choose strawberries that are ripe and sweet.
• Blend until smooth if you are looking for a smooth creamy shake. If you like chunky pieces in your shake blend accordingly, first blend well then pulse it few times .
• Wash the strawberries before eating or using it only. Do not wash the strawberries if you are storing them for later use. Strawberries soak up the water, which may make them mushy and reduce shelf life.
• If you had bought strawberries with the stem, don’t pluck it off their stems to retain freshness and increase shelf life. You can remove the stem while using it for recipes.
