# Cooking Tips:
01 -
- Cooling, creamy, and perfectly sweet without being overwhelming
- Ready in under ten minutes with ingredients you probably already have
02 -
- The longer you blend, the thinner it becomes, so stop as soon as everything is incorporated
- Frozen strawberries eliminate the need for quite as much ice and give you a more intense strawberry flavor
03 -
- Blend the ice alone for a few seconds first if your blender struggles with frozen fruit
- Coconut cream makes an incredibly rich dairy free version that actually holds its own
