Hello everyone, I'm Mira.
A drink has recently been super popular in Korea
And that's strawberry milk!
There's a shop in Korea that sells fresh strawberry milk.
It is very popular because of the pretty packaging and great taste.
A few days ago, there was a... I don't know which country is she from
But she made her own strawberry milk and shared it on Youtube
that video is totally VIRAL these few days
a lot of people had viewed that video
and of course I was one of the viewers
Her product was SO pretty!
and it seems really easy to make
Therefore, today, I'm also going to make my own strawberry milk!
Strawberries are usually very expensive in Korea
This box would normally cost
10000won (~70hkd or ~10usd)
but I only spent 5000won on this! hahahaha
The seller said she's lowering the price because it's raining
It's time to add milk!
Uhh... the milk and strawberry were supposed to be separate, showing 2 layers
but I have no idea why it turned out like this.
hahaha... this one is even worse
look
It got all mixed up without even stirring
I suddenly feel really sad :(
The result was TOO different from what I expected
But its okay.
Appearance is not that important, what really matters is the taste.
Okay, so this is the simple version.
Which is simply mashing strawberries with sugar to create a paste
and then add milk.
So let me try if this version tastes good.
The milk is turning pink
Okay. Taste test.
Mmmm~
But my straw is too thin
look, it got stuck
The ratio was perfect, its not too sweet and not too bland
Because just now when I was done making the strawberry paste
I did a taste test on the paste
It was really sweet
But now that I've added milk into it
I think its perfect.
Delicious!
Mmm~ I like it!
After drinking this, let's try the complicated version now.
There's a lot of strawberry flesh, can you see that?
Mmm. Whoa the strawberry flavour is rich.
It's a lot richer than the simple version.
The strawberries are so sweet.
Probably because it was marinated for a day, its really sweet
But I wonder what's the purpose of adding lemon.
Does it bring out the sweetness of the strawberry?
Or does it thickens up the milk?
Because this cup is obviously thicker than this cup
Although one of the jars is tall and the other is shorter
their volumes are actually pretty much the same
The amount of strawberry and milk I used were pretty much the same as well
And the result is...
The complicated version has stronger strawberry flavour
Flavour of milk... I don't really know why but it is also stronger
Generally, the whole things has stronger flavours
The simple version tastes freshers and lighter, not was heavy
The strawberry flesh in it are relatively 'crunchier' and juicier
And that's probably why the flavour of milk is not as strong
When comparing these 2
The simple version tastes like the strawberries and milk were slightly separated
As for the complicated version, the strawberry and milk were more well mixed
It is more like those strawberry milks sold in stores
As for me
guess which one do I prefer?
I like this! I like the simple version one.
First, it is very fresh and comforting
So it won't make you feel too stuffed even if you drink it after having a meal
Second, it is very easy and convenient to make, you can have it anytime
Because of these 2 reasons, I prefer this one more
It's not like this one doesn't taste good, it's really delicious as well
But when comparing them, I prefer simple version
The sweetness is pretty much the same for both of them
When I was preparing the strawberries, I thought there were too many strawberries and I wouldn't use them up
Turned out it was just enough
But because I want to be healthier, I don't want it too sweet
So when I was preparing the strawberries, I didn't add that much sugar
And when I add milk, I only put around 1/4
If you want even stronger strawberry flavour
You can put 1/3 or 1/2
From what I saw in that video, she added a lot of strawberries
But I was afraid that it would be too sweet or rich, so I only added a bit at first
But this ratio is perfect for me
If you're like me who prefer fresher tastes, you can try the simple version
But if you like richer tastes, with stronger flavour of milk
You can try making the other one, the complicated version.
You can control the size and sweetness when making your own drink
It really is a lot healthier
Okay, so this is the end of my sharing today
I think both versions tasted really good
So everyone can move your fingers and try making these strawberry milks at home
So that you don't need to come all the way to Korea. Plus I think the results were pretty good.
