Creamy Collagen Frozen Strawberry Lemonade
Creamy, refreshing, and bursting with bright strawberry-lemon flavor, this frozen drink tastes like a summer treat while delivering clinically studied collagen peptides and skin-plumping hyaluronic acid from my Strawberry Lemonade Lemon Sips.
It’s naturally sweetened, dairy-free, and ready in just five minutes. Serve it as an afternoon refresher, a poolside treat, or a better-for-you alternative to a sugary frozen drink.
Ingredients:
2 cups frozen strawberries
1/2 cup full-fat coconut cream (chilled overnight)
¼ c fresh lemon juice
2 scoops Dr. Kellyann's Lemon Sips (Strawberry Lemonade)
1 cups ice cubes
1 tablespoons raw honey or maple syrup (optional, to taste)
1/3 cups cold water or coconut water (to blend)
Directions:
Chill the coconut cream. Refrigerate a can of full-fat coconut milk overnight. Once chilled, open the can and scoop out the thick coconut cream from the top. Reserve the remaining liquid for another recipe or smoothie.
Add the ingredients to a blender. Combine the frozen strawberries, coconut cream, lemon juice, Strawberry Lemonade Lemon Sips, ice, and ⅓ cup cold water or coconut water. Add the honey or maple syrup if you prefer a sweeter drink.
Blend until smooth. Blend on high for 30 to 45 seconds, or until thick, smooth, and creamy. If the mixture is too thick to blend, add more water or coconut water, one tablespoon at a time.
Taste and adjust. Add an extra squeeze of lemon for more tartness or a small amount of honey or maple syrup for additional sweetness.
Serve immediately. Pour into chilled glasses and garnish with fresh strawberries and lemon slices, if desired.
Tip: For an extra thick, frosty texture, freeze your strawberries the night before and use ice-cold coconut water.
