Ingredients to make Strawberry Basil Smoothie:
- 200 grams of strawberries
- 125 grams of cream or milk cream
- 50 grams of brown sugar
- 120 milliliters of Milk (½ cup)
- 1 tablespoon fresh Basil
How to make Strawberry Basil Smoothie:
- We gather all the ingredients to prepare our fruit smoothie with milk.
- If you like the strawberry-basil mixture but want to make a lighter drink, you can substitute homemade lemonade for the milk and heavy cream.
- Bearing this in mind, we begin by washing and chopping the strawberries. Remember to remove the green stem part.
- Wash the basil leaves and place them in the blender as well.
- Basil is a digestive plant that also has some antioxidant properties, so including it in our diet will always be beneficial.
- Next we add the rest of the ingredients in the blender, these are the sugar, the milk and the milk cream.
- Now we turn on the blender and blend everything until the ingredients are completely integrated. If you see that the smoothie is too thick, you can add a little more milk.
- Pass the mixture through a strainer to give the fruit meringue a silkier texture without lumps.
- Finally, serve the strawberry and basil smoothie in a glass with ice and decorate with whipped cream or a piece of fresh fruit.
