    Jump to Recipe

    You will not believe how easy it is to make dairy free and also gluten free strawberry milkshake at home. It is a creamy, thick, refreshing summer treat but it's not full of refined sugar.

    Coconut milk makes this vegan milkshake very creamy like a smoothie and also gives a delicious taste! I love strawberries as you can tell from my strawberry sorbet or no bake strawberry cheesecake so this recipe is a perfect addition.

    But, before we jump into the recipe, let's talk about how you can customize it and learn some tips.

    How to make vegan strawberry milkshake

    Ingredients

    ingredients

    Frozen strawberries

    They provide so much flavor and also sweetness. In addition, they are cheaper than buying fresh berries so it's perfect for this healthy treat.

    Coconut Milk

    We will be adding unsweetened canned coconut milk (full-fat) to make this homemade vegan milkshake because it makes it so creamy. You can sub for light coconut milk but it may not be as creamy. You can also use almond milk if you don't like the coconut taste.

    Frozen bananas

    Ripe frozen bananas are another great way to add creaminess and also sweetness. You can even make banana ice cream from frozen bananas so it gives that ice cream taste without adding ice cream!

    Maple Syrup

    Maple syrup gives this a sweetness but it doesn't make it overly sweet. Also, feel free to adjust the amount and add more if you find the recipe not sweet enough.

    Vanilla extract (optional)

    Adding a little bit of vanilla extract makes it feel like a dessert so I recommend adding it. But feel free to omit it if you like.

    How to make vegan strawberry milkshake smoothie

    • First, you will need to put the frozen strawberries, coconut milk, frozen banana, vanilla extract, and maple syrup into a high-speed blender. And then blend until creamy and smooth. That's it!
