Ingredients
Scale

- 4oz strawberries, sliced (3/4 cup)
- 1 cup of milk
- Optional: 2 tablespoons sugar (or other sweetener), or to taste
Syrup method:
- 4oz strawberries, sliced (3/4 cup)
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 2 tablespoons water

- Combine strawberries, milk, and sweetener (if using) in a blender and blend until smooth.
Syrup method
- In a saucepan, combine the strawberries, sugar, and water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then turn the heat to low and simmer for 15 minutes. The berries will soften and lose their bright color and the liquid will be deep red.
- Strain the strawberries out of the simple syrup through a fine mesh strainer, being careful not to press down on the berries or the syrup will be cloudy.
- Chill until cold
- Stir the chilled strawberry syrup into a glass of cold milk
