Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 100 grams Fresh black currants
- 500 milliliters Whole milk
- 2 tablespoons Sugar
- 0.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Crushed ice
Instructions
Rinse the fresh black currants thoroughly under cold running water to remove any dirt or debris.
In a blender, combine the black currants, sugar, and vanilla extract. Blend for 30 seconds until the currants are broken down into a smooth mixture.
Add the whole milk to the blender and blend again on medium speed for 1 minute until fully combined and frothy.
Add the crushed ice to the blender and blend on high speed for another 30 seconds until the mixture becomes chilled and slightly slushy.
Taste the mixture and adjust the sweetness by adding more sugar if necessary. Blend briefly to combine.
Strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve into a large bowl or pitcher to remove any seeds or pulp, ensuring a smooth texture.
Pour the black currant milk into glasses and serve immediately for the freshest taste.
