When it comes to strawberry obsessions, I’m no stranger.
That’s probably because I was born and raised in a small town in Washington state, known for their obsessive love of succulent strawberries.
Now this was no ordinary town. It was a strawberry town.
We lived and breathed strawberries. Probably because back in the day, it was once filled with over 2,000 acres of scarlet strawberry fields.
That means I grew up picking enormous, juicy strawberries from the farms, growing sweet berries in my back yard, sipping on strawberry soda at the small-town restaurants, and obviously performing in the beloved annual Strawberry Festival.
That’s also why I share a ridiculous amount of strawberry inspired Summer Drinks around here, like my thick strawberry milkshake recipe. Because nothing screams summer better than homemade strawberry milkshakes!
There’s just something so perfect about homemade milkshakes on a lazy warm day, right? They’re what summer dreams are made of! My dreamy Peach Milk Shake and heavenly Orange Creamsicle Drink, and tropical Pineapple Shake help to prove that point deliciously!
Trust me… those fast food shakes don’t have a chance once you’ve taken a sip of this epic strawberry milkshake with ice cream!
C’mon… don’t you want a sip?? You know you do!
And that first sip requires just 5 minutes of effort…
