This drink is fun because it transports you back to childhood. Or is that just me? When I was a kid, I always, always ordered strawberry ice cream at the local ice cream parlor. And, really, I loved anything creamy. I still do, so thank goodness for dairy-free treats! This mylk really is the perfect glass. Strawberries and honey cook together and then swirl around the glass. Mix in homemade hazelnut milk with a touch of vanilla…et voila.
The necessary tools for this recipe are a blender, nut milk bag and a small pan. I use 2 16oz glasses for this recipe, but make it your own! Enjoy, and leave a comment below if you try it!
A drink that transports you back to childhood with strawberries, hazelnuts, vanilla and honey.

Step 1
Soak 1 cup of hazelnuts in water for 8 hours or overnight. Rinse thoroughly after soaking, and discard the soaking liquid.
Step 2
Add the rinsed hazelnuts, vanilla extract and filtered water to a blender. Blend until hazelnut pieces are very, very fine. Run though nut milk bag to create milk. Discard or save pulp to dehydrate for cookies, perhaps! Refrigerate milk if making fruit mixture later. Otherwise, the milk may stay out while you cook the fruit.
Step 2
In a pan add 1 cup of fresh or frozen. (If frozen, defrost first.) Also add the honey. Turn heat to medium/high and mix constantly to avoid burning. Bring to a boil, and then take off the heat. Allow cooked fruit mixture to cool.
Step 3
Once cool, pour fruit mixture in your glasses, half in each.
Lift each glass and swirl around to make a swirl pattern in the glass. Then pour milk into each glass. Serve immediately and enjoy!!
It’s probably best to enjoy that day, but I saved some and it was fine the next day!
