Hi readers! As promised, I have another strawberry themed recipe for you today that is inspired by a Carnival cruise I took late last year. For the formal dinner, I ordered the strawberry bisque and I fell in love right away. It was so cool and refreshing and it’s such a perfect recipe to make this summer, now that strawberries are in season. I looked up the recipe online and decided to recreate it with a few minor tweaks. Here’s my take.
Ingredients
3 c strawberries
1 1/2 water
3 tbs lemon juice
1 cup Greek Yogurt (honey flavored)
1/2 cup heavy cream
Optional: Fresh mint (flavor and garnish)
Directions
Blend strawberries and water in a blender.
Stir in heavy cream, Greek yogurt and lemon juice.
Chill for several hours before serving and top off with mint.
*Side note: The original recipe calls for sour cream and you can add that or plain Greek yogurt. I decided to use honey flavored Greek yogurt in place of sugar but you can use 3/4 c sugar instead too. You can find the recipes I searched up here and here.

And that’s it. An easy to make treat that you can enjoy with the family or share with others.
Now I’d love to hear from you! Would you enjoy seeing more posts like these? Let me know in the comments.

This recipe sounds and looks so delicious! I have actually been wanting strawberry shortcake lately lol. 🙂 xo

Thank you Katie! Well it’s not strawberry shortcake but really similar to a strawberry milkshake depending how sweet you make it and weather you add the lemon juice or not. Plenty of room for your own customization. 🙂
