Copycat Starbucks Pink Drink Recipe

Our family likes this even more than the real deal! It's made with chilled juice, creamy coconut milk, vibrant strawberries and it's finished with a small mountain of sweetened whipped cream to make it over-the-top delicious!

Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups berry juice, such as Juicy Juice Berry or Strawberry Kiwi, chilled
- 2/3 cup canned coconut milk, room temperature or chilled
- 1/2 cups cold water
- 6 oz (about 6 large) frozen strawberries
- 2 Tbsp sugar*
- 1 1/2 cups ice, for serving
- 3 fresh strawberries,** sliced, for garnish (optional)
Whipped Topping (optional)
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1 Tbsp granulated sugar
- 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
For the whipped topping
- Pour heavy cream, sugar and vanilla into a medium mixing bowl or a 2 cup liquid measuring cup (if it's wide enough for beater blades).
- Using an electric hand mixer whip heavy cream on high speed until stiff peaks form. Set aside.
For the pink drink
- To a high speed blender add berry juice, coconut milk, cold water, frozen strawberries and sugar. Cover and blend until well strawberries are well pureed, about 30 seconds.
- Divide ice and sliced strawberries if using among drinking glasses. Pour pink drink over ice. Spoon or pipe whipped topping over top if using and serve right away.
Notes
- *Depending on the sweetness of the strawberries you may want to adjust the sugar. You can use from 1 to 3 Tbsp sugar. Honey would work as well.
- **If you really want this to shine with strawberry flavor I love to add 1/2 tsp of this natural strawberry flavor.
- **A handful of freeze dried strawberries will work for garnish as well in place of the fresh (if you went with frozen strawberries this would be a good option because they store longer than fresh).
- If you opt not to use the heavy cream topping it will reduce calories by about 150 per serving.
- You can also use extra cream if you want a generous amount of topping. Go for 3/4 cup heavy cream, 1 1/2 Tbsp sugar, and 1/4 tsp vanilla.
