Equipment
Ingredients
- 2 teaspoons acai berry powder
- 1 cup cold water or coconut water
- 1-2 tablespoons honey maple syrup, or preferred sweetener (adjust to taste)
- ½ cup strawberries sliced, fresh or frozen
- Ice cubes for serving
Instructions
- In a large glass, combine the acai powder and 1 cup of cold water (or coconut water). Use a small whisk or handheld frother to blend until smooth. For a finer texture, strain through a fine mesh sieve to remove any undissolved bits.
- Stir in the honey (or other sweetener) until fully dissolved. Add the sliced strawberries directly into the acai mixture
- Fill the glass with ice cubes. Top with a splash of sparkling water for extra fizz. Stir well before sipping and enjoy your homemade strawberry acai refresher!
Notes
- Starbucks Copycat Tip: To mimic the Starbucks refresher more closely, you can replace half of the water with white grape juice and omit the honey. It creates a naturally fruity sweetness similar to the original drink.
- Sweetness Adjustments: Taste the drink before serving and adjust the sweetness if needed. Add a little extra honey if you prefer a sweeter refresher.
