Strawberries and Cream Frappucaino

To tell you the truth I can not drink Starbucks hot coffee drinks, I just can't take that smell but frozen or cold drinks I am all in. But it's very expensive and loaded with sugar and too much calories in it. So now and then I try to recreate at home its drinks with less sugar and calories. I was looking at its menu to make it something at home and I got this drink. It's so easy and above all its home made , no one can beat that in every way, costwise and calorie wise too. so lets hit up the  grinder.

Ingredients:

 1 cup whole milk (for vegan use unsweetened coconut milk)
1/3 cup frozen strawberries
6 medium strawberries, fresh, roughly chopped
1 tsp., vanilla extract
1 tsp. sugar or as per taste
Dollop of Whip cream 
Method:
In a microwave dish add the frozen strawberries and defrost it for 45 seconds.
Mash it with fork.
In a blender, add milk, vanilla extract, frozen strawberries with juice, fresh strawberries and sugar.
Blend until mix it nicely.
Take it a nice tall glass and serve it with whip cream on top..
Enjoy.
Makes two tall glasses.
