Notes
Make a homemade cheese foam topping with this recipe. However, you could skip this garnish entirely if you want to keep your recipe simple.
Furthermore, while we recommend using real fruit, it’s also possible to use store-bought strawberry syrup for a more convenient option.
You can switch out the skim milk for any dairy you prefer- almond milk, coconut milk, oat milk, or half and half are great alternatives.
You can use honey instead of refined sugar syrup to make your strawberry cheesecake tea healthier.
