This water-based drink brings together the flavors of strawberry shortcake in a light and refreshing way. Sweet strawberry, smooth vanilla, and a hint of coconut come together with a splash of half and half for a treat that’s easy to sip and not too heavy. This is a quicker, more straightforward alternative to infused water, offering flavor without the long wait. It’s perfect for a warm afternoon or a cozy break. The frozen strawberries add a natural chill and a bit of texture, while the syrups bring in just the right amount of sweetness. Be careful when cutting frozen strawberries, as they can be quite hard and slippery. It’s best to let them soften slightly before slicing. You might want to use a wider straw if you want to enjoy eating the strawberry chunks as you sip.
