Notes

    1.  
    • Adjusting Sweetness: The sweetness of the drink can be adjusted based on the ripeness of the strawberries. If you want it sweeter, add more sugar or a sweetener of your choice.
    • Vegan Version: Use plant-based milk (like almond, oat, or coconut milk) and a dairy-free whipped cream to make this frappe vegan.
    • Frozen Strawberries: If you’re using frozen strawberries, you may not need to add extra ice, as the frozen fruit will already give the frappe a nice icy texture.
    • Extra Flavors: For added flavor, consider adding a bit of lemon zest or a squeeze of lemon juice to bring out the strawberries’ natural tanginess.
