Strawberry Corn Milk Recipe

Milky, sweet, and brimming with corn flavor, it's no surprise that Strawberry Corn Milk has become a trendy offering in boba shops. When in season, use fresh sweet corn for optimal flavor; alternatively, you can substitute canned sweet corn. This recipe draws inspiration from one of our favorite spots - Bopomofo Cafe.

Ingredients

Corn Concentrate

  • 2 whole sweet corn on the cob
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • 2 cups water

Strawberry Puree

  • 8 oz frozen strawberries
  • 1 tbsp sugar optional
  • ½ cup water

Drink Assembly

  • ice
  • milk of choice
  • corn concentrate
  • strawberry puree

Instructions

Make Corn Concentrate

  • Remove the corn husks. Trim the corn kernels off and break the corn cobs so that they could fit into a saucepan.
  • Add corn, corn cobs, salt, and sugar to a saucepan. Fill with just enough water to cover the corn, about 2 cups.
  • Bring to a boil, then cook for 5 minutes.
  • Turn off the heat and let it cool completely. Remove the corn cobs.
  • Blend the boiled corn/water mixture.
  • Strain the blended corn to remove the solids.

Make Strawberry Puree

  • Blend strawberries with sugar and about 1/2 cup of water until it is smooth and pourable.

Drink Assembly

  • In a boba glass, fill with ice. Then add 2 parts corn concentrate: 1 part milk. Lastly, add a dollop of strawberry puree on top.

Notes

  • We served our strawberry corn milk in our reusable Love Potion bottles we had obtained from Gong Cha during Valentine’s season.
