What Is the Starbucks Pink Drink?
The famous Starbucks Pink Drink combines strawberry flavors, coconut milk, and ice to create a refreshing tropical beverage. While delicious, a standard Pink Drink contains a significant amount of added sugar.
This healthier version keeps the creamy texture and fruity flavor while replacing sugar with pure monk fruit sweetener.
Ingredients
For 2 Servings
- 1 cup unsweetened coconut milk
- 1 cup chilled hibiscus tea (or passion tea)
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, sliced
- 1/8 teaspoon Vivid Nutrition 100% Pure Monk Fruit Powder
- 1 cup ice
- Optional: freeze-dried strawberry pieces for topping
Instructions
Step 1: Brew the Tea
Prepare hibiscus tea according to package instructions and allow it to cool completely.
Step 2: Blend
Add coconut milk, cooled tea, strawberries, monk fruit powder, and ice to a blender.
Blend for 20-30 seconds until smooth and frothy.
Step 3: Taste & Adjust
Since pure monk fruit powder is highly concentrated, start with a small amount and adjust sweetness as desired.
Step 4: Serve
Pour into tall glasses and garnish with sliced strawberries or freeze-dried strawberry pieces.
Enjoy immediately.
