Summer is just around the corner and one of the best ways to get through it is by staying hydrated with some cold drinks. Here are 10 refreshing non-alcoholic strawberry summer drinks to quench your thirst! These strawberry drinks are easy to make and healthy as heck!
Just a quick tip before we get into the dirty deeds, always get your strawberries fresh, wash them, and freeze them yourself.
I hate getting frozen fruits cause I just don’t trust the cleaning process. Besides, getting fresh organic strawberries and freezing them gives your drinks a much better taste.
Benefits Of Strawberries
Did you know that eating just half a serving of strawberries per day helps lower insulin levels? It’s true but that’s not all, strawberries are also great for reducing blood cholesterol, and regulating high blood pressure, oxidative stress, and inflammation.
Strawberries have a good amount of vitamin C, fiber, and potassium. They also contain high amounts of anthocyanins which are a group of antioxidants that fight against many diseases.
10 Refreshing Non-Alcoholic Strawberry Summer Drinks
1. Strawberry Ginger Lemonade
I found this recipe on Eating Well and thought it looked amazing, however, I highly recommend making your own lemonade by mixing lemons, water, and stevia. As for the ginger beer, grate some ginger, mix it in the lemonade, and strain it.
2. Frozen Strawberry Lemonade
This simple frozen strawberry lemonade requires only 3 ingredients. It’s so easy to make and has only 80 calories. I also recommend you make your own lemonade for this recipe but other than that, there’s no added sugar so all is well.
3. Strawberry Lime Slush
This strawberry lime slush is so similar to the frozen strawberry lomonade above but comes with a slight difference. This recipe calls for lime concentrate which makes this slush sourer so if that’s your thing, then you must try this recipe.
4. Strawberry Agua Fresca
This is hands down one of the best strawberry agua fresca recipes I’ve tried! With that being said, I recommend you use coconut or almond evaporated milk, and stevia for sweetener. Heads up though, this recipe takes more than 4 hours to make but it’s worth the wait.
5. Strawberry With Coconut Milk
Here is a very healthy strawberry coconut milk drink that you can make in just 5 minutes or less. There is no added sugar in this strawberry drink and it’s low in calories as well. However, for a low-fat version, go for light coconut milk.
6. Strawberry Colada Smoothie
It doesn’t get any healthier than this! This strawberry colada smoothie is packed with cream and has a tropical flavor! It also takes only 10 minutes to make and has a good amount of protein! I wouldn’t change anything about this recipe.
7. Frozen Strawberry Smoothie
With just 4 ingredients, you’ll have this smoothie ready in just 5 minutes! It’s healthy, and low in calories and sugar. This recipe is great if you have some frozen strawberries in the fridge and awesome for summer!
8. Strawberry Mocktail
I love this strawberry mocktail, it’s so easy to make and does not require a lot of ingredients. It’s healthy and great for the summer heat. It also comes with a little bit of fiber, a good amount of vitamin C, and only 92 calories per serving.
9. Sparkling Strawberry Lemonade
This strawberry lemonade is refreshing on a hot summer day! I only recommend you use stevia or honey instead of granulated sugar. Other than that, it’s worth trying.
10. Strawberry Coconut Kiwi Smoothie
I just had to add this to the list! Not only does it look amazing, it’s easy to make, totally refreshing, and great for the summer heat. This smoothie is packed with protein and low in calories so definitely try it!
Who Shouldn’t Consume Strawberries
Okay, so eating or drinking strawberries in moderation won’t cause you any harm. However, research shows that people with allergies should be careful when choosing this fruit.
Also, if you have digestive issues, diarrhea, diabetes, or renal insufficiencies, you should not eat or drink strawberries. Other than that, you’re good to go!
