Berry juice – I have tried an off brand and a name brand and for this pink drink, Juicy Juice Berry blend is a must!
Frozen Strawberries – To chill your drink, and get that perfect puree, frozen strawberries are needed.
Coconut Milk – I used a shelf-stable brand just like Starbucks uses and it worked perfectly.
Sugar – You will need a wee bit to sweeten your pink drinks.
Freeze-dried strawberries – These make it just feel right, and they are also pretty! I love the texture and flavor of the CVS brand.
Sparkling water – This adds a nice fizzle to the drink and makes it taste super yummy!
Ice Cubes – These keep your drink perfectly chilled.
Alcohol – If you are 21+, adding an ounce of white rum to each drink is soooo refreshing!

Heavy Cream – This is the base to make it thick, rich, and creamy.
