As I sat on my cozy porch one summer afternoon, I decided it was time to try something new and refreshing. That’s when I stumbled upon the concept of a healthy pink drink, a beverage that promised both flavor and nourishment in every sip.
Gather ½ cup of unsweetened coconut milk from a carton, 1 cup of ice, 2 tablespoons of freeze-dried strawberries, ½ cup of unsweetened strawberry sparkling water, and ½ packet of strawberry Crystal Light.
Step 2: Combine Coconut Milk And Ice:
Pour ½ cup of unsweetened coconut milk into a glass. Add 1 cup of ice to the glass.
Step 3: Add Crushed Strawberries:
Crush 2 tablespoons of freeze-dried strawberries and sprinkle them over the coconut milk and ice in the glass.
Step 4: Pour Sparkling Water And Crystal Light:
Open the bottle of unsweetened strawberry sparkling water and pour ½ cup into the glass. Tear open the packet of strawberry Crystal Light and add half of it to the glass.
Step 5: Stir Well:
Use a spoon or stirrer to mix all the ingredients together until the Crystal Light is fully dissolved and the flavors are evenly distributed.
Step 6: Serve And Garnish (Optional):
Your healthy pink drink is now ready to enjoy! Give it a final stir if needed, then sip and relish the refreshing combination of flavors. For an extra touch, garnish your drink with a fresh strawberry or a slice of lime on the rim of the glass.
Notes
– For a sweeter version of the drink, you can add a dash of honey or agave syrup to enhance the sweetness.
– Feel free to experiment with different fruit flavors by substituting the freeze-dried strawberries with raspberries or blueberries for a unique twist.
– To make a dairy-free version of the drink, use almond milk or oat milk instead of coconut milk.
– For a more indulgent treat, top the drink with a dollop of coconut whipped cream and a sprinkle of toasted coconut flakes.
