When I was a kid, it seemed like every other kid was alllllllllll about that chocolate milk life.

Not me. I wanted to chug strawberry milk by the gallon.

Back then, I thought the way to make strawberry milk was to squeeze a yellow bottle of factory-made syrup into my cup.

Now that I’m older and wiser, I know that yellow bottle of syrup contains exactly 0% strawberry.

I wanted to make myself a genuine homemade glass of strawberry milk bursting with real strawberry flavor.

I was blown away by the result.

It was so good that even Janette, who supposedly hates strawberry milk, will regularly ask me to mix her up a glass.
