Notes

  • You can substitute frozen fruit for fresh fruit, but frozen fruit makes your milkshake extra cold and creamy.
  • The lemon juice brings out the strawberry flavor, you may need to add less if you freeze freshly picked strawberries or more if your frozen strawberries don't have much flavor.
  • Don't skip the salt, especially if you're using grocery store frozen berries, the salt will bring out the strawberry flavor.
