Instructions

Add the milk to a high-speed blender first.
Add the frozen strawberries, fresh lime juice, and fine sea salt.
Add the ice cubes and vanilla extract. Blend on low for 10 seconds, then increase to high and blend for 35–50 seconds until smooth.
Check consistency and blend in 1–2 tablespoons additional milk if too thick, or a few extra ice cubes or frozen fruit if too thin.
Pour into a 16-ounce glass and serve immediately.

Tips

Use full-fat milk or a dairy alternative for creaminess. You can substitute lime juice with lemon juice for a different citrus note.
