Ingredients
Blender Method Ingredients
- 3 strawberries (rinsed and dried, stems and leaves removed)
- 3 tablespoons heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1-2 teaspoons sweetener (regular sugar, stevia, agave, honey, or preferred sweetener)
No Blender Method Ingredients
- 1-2 tablespoons strawberry jam
- 3 tablespoons heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1-2 teaspoons sweetener (optional, based on taste)
Instructions
- Prepare Blender Mixture: In a small blender, add 3 cleaned and stemmed strawberries, 3 tablespoons of heavy cream, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Blend on medium speed until the mixture is thick and creamy, which should take about 1-2 minutes.
- Add Sweetener: Taste the blended foam and stir in 1-2 teaspoons of your chosen sweetener until it reaches your desired sweetness.
- Serve Blender Foam: Pour or spoon the thickened strawberry foam onto your beverage or dessert and enjoy the fresh, fruity flavor.
- Prepare No Blender Mixture: In a mason jar, combine 1-2 tablespoons of strawberry jam, 3 tablespoons of heavy cream, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
- Shake or Froth: Secure the jar lid tightly and shake vigorously for 2-3 minutes until the mixture becomes thick and creamy. Alternatively, use a milk frother to achieve the same creamy consistency.
- Add Sweetener if Needed: Taste the mixture and add 1-2 teaspoons of sweetener if you prefer it sweeter. Shake or froth again briefly to mix.
- Serve No Blender Foam: Spoon the creamy strawberry foam onto your drink or dessert and enjoy immediately.
Notes
- The sweetness level can be adjusted with any sweetener you like, including honey, stevia, or sugar.
- If you want a stronger strawberry flavor in the blender method, add an extra strawberry or more sweetener.
- The cold foam is best served fresh but can be refrigerated for up to a day; shake or stir before using again.
- Heavy cream can be substituted with coconut cream for a dairy-free alternative, but results may vary.
- The no blender method is ideal when you don’t have a blender handy or prefer a chunkier texture from the strawberry jam.
