LEXINGTON SC (WOLO) – Manmade Gourmet’s Love It or Chuck It: Chocolate Covered Strawberry Pink Drink So specialty drinks made by your favorite trendy coffee shop are all the rage, but the only rage the Manmade Gourmet feels is the $10 price tag they charge, to Tyler and Vaughan decided to jum p on the trend bandwagon and do it at home. Per usual, we tried to stick, as best we could, to the recipe that we found… First, here is the list for the drink – there isn’t a lot: 1 ½ Cup of Strawberries 1 Cup Light Coconut Milk For the cold foam: ¼ Cup of Coconut Cream 1 TBSP Maple Syrup 1 TBSP Cocoa Powder How to make it – and it is SIMPLE:  To make this drink, start by adding the strawberries and coconut milk to a blender. You can leave the tops on the strawberries and place them in the blender whole – just make sure they’re washed thoroughly! Blend the strawberries and coconut milk until they’re smooth and creamy, then transfer the mixture to a tall glass, filled with ice. Next, prepare the chocolate cold foam. Add the coconut milk, maple syrup, and cocoa powder to a separate glass and whisk to combine. I like to use an electric whisk or milk frother to make this cold foam nice and frothy! Once the cold foam is done, pour it over top of the pink drink. Give it a light stir, then serve and enjoy! THIS is where the inspiration came from! https://kalejunkie.com/copycat-starbucks-chocolate-covered-strawberry-pink-drink/#wprm-recipe-container-24399 Lessons learned / tips: Don’t try to use a spoon to help blend We used half and half, not coconut cream, that might have been better If you have a favorite or “viral” recipe you want us to try our hands at, email [email protected] ABOUT THE TYLER RYAN: Tyler Ryan is an award winning television and radio personality, weather forecaster, writer, investigative journalist, and professional emcee.  He appears daily on ABC Columbia’s Good Morning Columbia, as well as hosting the syndicated radio program Carolina Cares on the South Carolina Radio Network, and the iHeart Radio Network.  Tyler also regularly appears as a criminal expert and journalist on regional and national crime based programs like Snapped and Killer Couples.  You can contact him directly via EMAIL Or on the socials: Tyler’s Instagram  // Tyler’s Facebook   Categories: Digital Exclusives and Features Tags: cooking, crystyvaughn, love it or chuck it, manmade gourmet, pink drink recipe, tyler ryan, viral recipe ...read more read less
