Summer Berry Refresher Recipe

Prep Time 5 minutes
Total Time 5 minutes
Servings: 1 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 1 tsp freeze-dried strawberry powder
  • 1 tsp dried hibiscus flowers
  • 1 tsp white sugar
  • 1/4 tsp green coffee extract
  • 1/4 cup hot water
  • 1 cup cold water
  • 1 cup ice
  • 3 tbsp coconut milk
  • 1 tbsp freeze-dried strawberry pieces

Method
 

  1. Combine the strawberry powder, hibiscus flowers, sugar, and green coffee extract in a small heatproof cup. Add the hot water, stir for 30 seconds to dissolve the sugar, and steep for 3 minutes.
  2. Strain the mixture through a fine mesh strainer into a glass or bowl, pressing the hibiscus flowers to extract all the liquid. Discard the flowers.
  3. Fill a tall glass with ice, pour in the concentrate and cold water, stir briefly, then add the freeze-dried strawberry pieces.
  4. Pour the coconut milk slowly over the back of a spoon to float it on top, then serve immediately.

Notes

The concentrate alone keeps in the fridge for up to 5 days, which makes this easy to scale up on the weekend and build throughout the week. Green coffee extract varies in strength by brand, so taste the concentrate before adding it and adjust to your caffeine preference. If your hibiscus flowers are extra dry and brittle, 2 minutes of steeping is usually enough.
