Strawberries and Cream Milkshake

Ingredients

1/2 pound strawberries, hulled and sliced, plus more for garnish
2 tablespoons sugar
4 scoops of vanilla ice cream (for non-dairy, I love coconut ice cream)
1 cup whole milk or almond milk or coconut milk
Whipped cream, for topping

Instructions

1. In a medium saucepan, set over medium heat, add the strawberries, sugar, a splash of water, and a pinch of salt. Cover the pan and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, until the berries have cooked down. Pour the puree through a strainer. Discard the pulp and set the syrup aside.

2. To a blender, add the ice cream and milk of your choice. Pulse only a few times (you don't want it too liquidy), just until the ice cream is broken up. Add a tablespoon of strawberry syrup to each glass. Top with a handful of strawberries and a big dollop of whipped cream. Serve immediately.
