Strawberry milk is a beverage made from milk and strawberry syrup. Commercial versions of strawberry milk often contain artificial flavors and food coloring, but it’s easy to make your own homemade strawberry milk with real strawberries. All you need are strawberries, a glass of milk, and sweetener.
Can You Use a Different Sweetener?
Sure! We liked honey in our strawberry milk, but you could make it with maple syrup, agave nectar, or any sweetener you prefer. Just start with a little bit at first, and then taste and add more as needed.

The Best Strawberries to Use
This recipe is best with summer strawberries that are at the very peak of ripeness. This is how you’ll get a naturally sweet drink without needing to add a lot of additional honey.
This is also a great way to use up berries that are slightly past their prime, or you can use frozen strawberries. Frozen strawberries are strawberries that are picked at the peak of the season, so usually they are really good.
