This Keto Strawberry Smoothie provides a refreshing and creamy treat that fits perfectly into a low-carb morning routine. Because it uses sugar-free condensed milk or Greek yogurt, you get a thick, indulgent texture without the high sugar content found in traditional smoothies. Furthermore, this recipe is incredibly versatile, allowing you to swap ingredients based on what you have in your pantry.

Ingredients & What You’ll Need

Gather these simple, chilled ingredients to whip up a smooth and fruity beverage in just a few minutes.

Milk of choice: Acts as the liquid base; unsweetened almond or coconut milk works best for keto.
Sugar-free condensed milk: Provides a rich sweetness and a velvety consistency to the drink.
Greek yogurt: Serves as an excellent high-protein alternative if you prefer a tangier flavor profile.
Ice: Creates the frozen, slushy texture that makes the smoothie so refreshing.
Frozen strawberries: Offer a bright, fruity flavor while helping to thicken the mixture without extra ice.

How to Make a Keto Strawberry Smoothie

This method uses a high-speed blender to ensure the ice and frozen fruit reach a perfectly smooth consistency.

1. Combine the Base

First, pour your milk of choice into a high-speed blender. Add the sugar-free condensed milk or the Greek yogurt along with the crushed ice. You should blend these initial ingredients until they are completely combined and the ice is broken down.

2. Add the Fruit

Next, add the frozen strawberries to the blender. You must pulse or blend the mixture until you achieve your desired texture. If you prefer a thicker shake, you can blend for a shorter amount of time. Consequently, the frozen berries will turn the liquid into a beautiful pink, creamy smoothie.

3. Serve and Enjoy

Pour the finished smoothie into glasses and enjoy it immediately while it is still icy and fresh. Therefore, you have a delicious and healthy snack that satisfies your sweet tooth in seconds.

Tips and Notes

Storage: While the strawberry smoothie is best enjoyed fresh, you can store it in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. You should be aware that the mixture may start to separate if left any longer.
Freezing: The smoothie cannot be frozen as a whole liquid. Instead, you should pour the mixture into an ice cube tray and freeze it. When you are ready to enjoy it, simply pop the cubes into a blender and blend until thick.
Sweetness Level: You can add a few drops of liquid stevia or monk fruit if you prefer an even sweeter smoothie.
Texture Trick: Using frozen strawberries instead of fresh ones is the best way to get a thick, frosty result without diluting the flavor with too much ice.
