Happy Valentine’s Day! One of the things my family loves is when I make a big batch of a green smoothie to share with them in the mornings. My kids thing green smoothies are the best things ever. I figured they would be equally happy with more of a treat coming out of the blender for Valentine’s Day, so I whipped up a healthier take on a strawberry milkshake.
When the Fujilings saw that I was making something with strawberries, they were immediately on board (the Fujilings have serious places in their hearts for strawberries), and once they each got a glass for themselves, they were extremely happy. (Bug insisted that unicorns make people happy too, and must be in her picture.)
So whip up a sweet treat to serve to those you love. You could call it a milkshake, but frappé just sounds more romantic, don’t you think? Happy Valentine’s Day from the Fuji Family.

Happy Valentine’s Day to the Family Fuji – I was visiting “our” Japanese market yesterday and was missing you and your girls…Lovely frappe!
Every time I go to a Japanese market, I think of you, and wish you were there with me! I hope your day is delicious! XO
Looks tasty and so festive! I don’t think I have any almond extract… should I get some? Is it super useful?
I LOVE almond extract! I use it a lot in baking, using a bit in place of a bit of vanilla extract. If you love almond flavor, then you’ll love it!
Is the coconut milk the thick kind from a can or the thin shelf stable/refrigerated coconut beverage type?
You can use either! For this I used the coconut milk that you can find in the refrigerator section near the milk in supermarkets.
Oh yeah, this is tomorrow’s lunch.
Super cute picture! Milkshake looks yummy!
Thank you so much!
