Starbucks Pink Drink
Skip the coffee shop and make this creamy, fruity Pink Drink at home with just 3 simple ingredients. It's dairy-free, refreshing, and ready in minutes.
Servings: 2 drinks
Ingredients
- ½ cup stemmed and sliced fresh strawberries (plus more for garnish)
- 2 cups Oceanspray White Cran-Strawberry Juice
- 1 cup sweetened vanilla coconut milk
- 4 tsp simple syrup (optional, for added sweetness)
- small ice cubes
Instructions
- In a pitcher, add the sliced fresh strawberries. Very gently crush the strawberries by using a muddler. (The goal is to release some of the juices, not to smash them completely. The slices should still be intact.)
- Add white cran-strawberry juice, sweetened vanilla coconut milk, and simple syrup; stir to combine.
- Pour over ice in glasses to serve. Add additional strawberry slices for garnish, optional.

Notes
- Whisk the coconut milk until completely smooth before adding. It separates in the carton and can clump when it hits the cold juice.
- Press the strawberries gently, just until juice releases. Over-muddling makes the drink cloudy.
- The drink settles as it sits, so stir before each pour. Great for making ahead for a crowd, assemble the pitcher earlier in the day and refrigerate.
- The optional simple syrup makes it taste closest to Starbucks-level sweetness. Without it, the drink is lightly sweet.
- Want the caffeine added back in? A splash of brewed green tea does the trick.
