This dairy free milkshake recipe made with coconut milk and fresh strawberries adds a healthier twist to a sweet summer treat. It's gluten free and vegan, too!

1 cupfresh strawberrieshulled and sliced into quarters
½ to ¾cupcoconut milklight or full-fat
1teaspoonsugar
Instructions
Hull strawberries and slice into quarters.
Place strawberry slices in a bowl and dust with sugar. Toss strawberries in sugar to coat, and allow to macerate for about 10 minutes. Then place in freezer until completely frozen, 40 minutes to one hour.
In a blender, mix the whole pint of non-dairy dessert, ½ cup coconut milk and frozen strawberries (scrape that strawberry-sugar juice out of the bowl, too!)
Pour into glasses and serve. Chill on the front porch and enjoy the lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer.
Notes
You really don't want a liquid-y shake, so you need a pretty good blender. You might have to blend a little, and scrape down a few times. If necessary, add the remaining ¼ cup of coconut milk. But if you are patient, you might be able to avoid it.
You can substitute the coconut milk and dairy free coconut milk ice cream for oat milk and oat milk ice cream. The oat milk and oat milk ice cream will not be as thick as coconut milk, so you may have to adjust the ratios to get your desired thickness.
