Ingredients
- 150 g fresh strawberries
- 50 g white sugar
- 2 tsp lemon juice
Steps
Chop the strawberries small enough to travel up a boba straw.
Mash or pulse until about two thirds is puréed and a third is still in pieces.
Tip into a small bowl with the sugar and lemon and stir to coat.
Cover and refrigerate at least 3 to 4 hours, ideally overnight.
Pour off about 2 tbsp of the liquid that collects. This keeps the mix concentrated so your lattes are not watery.
Use about 60 g per drink, spooned into the bottom of the glass.
Good to know
- Sugar between 30 and 40 percent of the fruit weight. Less is fruitier, more is syrupier.
- Draining a little liquid is the step people skip, and it is why homemade strawberry lattes usually taste thin.
- Keeps five days. Works the same way with peaches or mango.
