2. The Shopping List (No Fancy Ingredients!)
Here’s what you’ll need for 2 servings:
- Strawberries: 1 cup (fresh or frozen—fresh tastes brighter, frozen makes it thicker)
- Cream cheese: ¼ cup (full-fat for richness, or light if you’re cutting calories)
- Greek yogurt: ½ cup (plain or vanilla; I love Fage or Chobani for extra creaminess)
- Milk: ½ cup (any type—dairy, almond, oat)
- Honey: 2–3 tbsp (or maple syrup for vegan)
- Graham crackers: 2 whole sheets (crushed—Nabisco Honey Maid is classic)
- Vanilla extract: ½ tsp (the secret flavor booster!)
- Ice: ½ cup (skip if using frozen strawberries)
Optional upgrades:
- A pinch of lemon zest (brightens the flavor)
- Protein powder (add 1 scoop for extra staying power)

3. Prep Like a Pro (It’s Easier Than Folding Laundry)
- Prep strawberries: Rinse, hull (remove the green tops), and slice.
- Crush graham crackers: Smash them in a zip-top bag with a rolling pin or use a food processor.
- Chill your glasses: Pop them in the freezer for 5 minutes for a frosty vibe.
4. Blending Magic (No Cooking, Just Whirring!)
- Layer ingredients in your blender:
- Strawberries → cream cheese → yogurt → milk → honey → vanilla → ice.
Why this order? Liquids at the bottom help the blender run smoothly.
- Blend on high for 30–45 seconds until ultra-smooth. Pause to scrape the sides if needed.
- Taste test: Too thick? Add a splash of milk. Not sweet enough? Drizzle in more honey.
Secret tip: Freeze your strawberries the night before for a thicker, milkshake-like texture.

- Pair it: Serve with a side of whole-grain toast or a handful of almonds for a balanced meal.
6. Next-Level Hacks
