Sweet Strawberry Shake

Stop what you're doing, I've sussed it. Here is it, the ultimate, insanely perfect, impossibly wondrous (AND SPOOKILY HEALTHY) strawberry milkshake. That's by anyone standards. Beauty is in the eye of the mason jar holder.

Wherever you are look up your nearest supermarket, head to it and buy the following ingredients (if you are somewhere strange and horrid, such as in a forest or on holiday somewhere that doesn't offer WiFi or 3G then, I hate to break it to you, but you're going to have to use a map and compass and get walking. It's worth returning to the old-age methods of travel for.)

Ingredients:

1 cup of frozen strawberries
5 pitted dates
1 dessert spoon of manuka honey
Almond milk to the max line, if using a nutribullet (if not, it's approx 200ml)
2 Tsp of strawberry Nesquick (optional. A baddy, but a goody)

Whizz up, pop in a pretty glass, decorate how you wish (or don't bother if the anticipation becomes too strong. You can find what I did with mine below: the milkshake, old fashioned paper straw and a slice of strawberry on top, all served in a mason jar. Ladies love mason jars) and enjoy, preferably in your favourite sunny spot in the garden.

It's thick, sweet and with a heavenly natural taste of proper, Somerset-grown (depending on where you hail from) strawberries.
