    Freeze Dried Vs. Frozen Strawberries

    If you have noticed, this Starbucks Pink Drink recipe calls for freeze dried strawberries instead of frozen ones. But, what is really the difference anyway?

    Well, frozen strawberries are exactly that…frozen. They are still full of moisture, and will add liquid content when used.

    On the other hand, freeze dried means that the water has been removed (in other words, dehydrated). This leaves your fruit in a crunchy candy-like state. It also preserves the sensory quality, allows for concentrated flavors, and possesses a longer shelf-life.

    You opt for using freeze dried strawberries when the liquid from using fresh or frozen fruits would adversely affect your recipe.


    Tips For Amazing Results!

    1: Feel free to adjust your drink’s level of sweetness by using sweetened/unsweetened coconut milk, or adding agave, honey, or syrup.

    2: Although you can use canned coconut milk, I would prefer if you pick it up from the refrigerated section of your grocery store.

    3: You can substitute coconut milk for coconut cream. Just make sure you give your drink a good stir before you consume!


    Giving Out Immaculate Vibes!

    One sip is all it takes!

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Does the starbucks Pink Drink contains caffeine?

    See, this all depends on whether you choose to add the green tea or not. Adding green tea makes your drink lightly caffeinated; but you can always skip it if you prefer.

    Do I have to use Coconut milk?

    Although this recipe calls for coconut milk to achieve the original Starbucks signature flavor, you can also use soy, almond, or regular dairy milk. These make good substitutes.

    Is this drink healthy?

    If you compare this drink to other Starbucks beverages, you will realize that the pink drink is actually much healthier! Even the level of sweetness can be adjusted to your liking, without losing its unique flavor.
