What is the Strawberry Acai Refresher and How to Make It
Refreshers do not prepare with tea. They receive their Caffeine from green coffee extract instead. The Strawberry Acai Refresher stays the most popular refresher among the flavors.
In the store one prepares the drink by means of equal parts of water and strawberry-acai base, together with ice and freeze-dried strawberries. Everything enters a shaker and one shakes it around ten tiems. The shake truly matters, because the drink has a bit different taste if one does not shake it.
When one orders without added details, one uses water as default. One can also prepare it with lemonade or coconut milk instead of water. Choosing coconut milk turns it into Pink Drink.
Using lemonade creates the Strawberry Acai Lemonade Refresher.
The large Strawberry Acai Refresher has around 90 calories. The nutrients are made up of 100 percent carbs, with zero fat and zero protein. It belongs too the more lightweight options on the Starbucks menu.
The drink has freeze-dried strawberries, focused acai juice with antioxidants and green coffee extract for gentle Caffeine impact.
The base itself includes water, sugar, white grape juice, acai powder, passion fruit puree, natural green coffee bean flavoring and freeze-dried strawberries. Some reckon that it tastes like Capri Sun and almost matches the canned Strawberry Lemonade refresher.
About home preparation it is entirely doable. Copy recipes use usual ingredients like white grape juice, fresh strawberries, acai powder, passion fruit and green tea powder. The mix from white grape juice, strawberry powder, acai powder and green coffee bean extract delivers the same sweet-tart flavor and light Caffeine push as the original base.
After blending one can use a fine filter to remove solid bits. Later one pours it over ice in tall glasses. Adding fresh strawberry bits or strawberry puree improves it even more.
Getting freeze-dried strawberries, green coffee bean powder and acai powder can require a bit ofresearch however.
The Starbucks version is also available in stores. A 32-ounce bottle is possible to get at Target with same-day delivery or drive-up options.
