Q&A Section
Q1: Can I use frozen strawberries?
Yes, frozen strawberries make the shake thicker and colder. Just skip adding ice cubes.
Q2: How can I make it vegan?
Use almond or oat milk, dairy-free strawberry ice cream, and coconut whipped cream.
Q3: Can I make it without ice cream?
Yes, use extra strawberries, more milk, and add honey or maple syrup for sweetness.
Q4: How long will it stay fresh?
Best enjoyed immediately. If stored in the fridge, drink within 2–3 hours (whipped cream may deflate).
Q5: Any extra flavor ideas?
Blend in a banana for creaminess, or add a dash of vanilla essence for depth.
