Directions
1. To make the vanilla strawberry milkshake: Chill a glass. Wash and pat the strawberries dry. Cut off the stems and slice the strawberries so they fill in 1 and 1/2 cups.

3. Pour the vanilla strawberry milkshake into the cold glass you prepared at step 1 and top with a strawberry or any topping of your choice. We like adding some shredded coconut. Enjoy!
