Base Ingredients
- 1 cup brewed and chilled strawberry acai tea
- 1/2 cup coconut milk
- 1–2 tbsp sweetener of choice (simple syrup, honey, or agave nectar), adjust to taste
- 1–2 tsp lemon or lime juice (optional)
Add-ins
- 2 tbsp freeze-dried strawberries, lightly crushed
- Ice cubes as needed
Instructions
- Brew and Chill the Tea: Brew the strawberry acai tea according to package instructions, then allow it to cool completely to form the flavorful base of your drink.
- Prepare the Freeze-Dried Strawberries: Lightly crush the freeze-dried strawberries to release their intense berry flavor and set aside to infuse into the drink.
- Mix Ingredients: In a tall glass or shaker, combine the chilled strawberry acai tea, coconut milk, your chosen sweetener, and a splash of lemon or lime juice if using. Stir or shake thoroughly until well combined.
- Assemble and Serve: Fill a glass with ice cubes, add the crushed freeze-dried strawberries, then pour the mixed drink over the ice. Give everything a gentle stir and enjoy immediately.
Notes
- Use high-quality or loose-leaf strawberry acai tea for best flavor.
- Make sure to chill the tea completely before mixing to keep the drink crisp and refreshing.
- Consider freezing tea ice cubes to prevent dilution as ice melts.
- Start with a small amount of sweetener and add more gradually to avoid over-sweetening.
- Try different milk alternatives like almond or oat milk for vegan or varied texture options.
