How to choose fresh and delicious ingredients
How to choose good strawberries:
- Strawberries when ripened naturally will have a distinctive aroma, you should choose those when you smell the fragrant scent of ripe strawberries.
- Choose strawberries that are red and plump.
- Avoid choosing strawberries with green spots, which are still unripe because strawberries do not continue to ripen once picked like other fruits.
- Do not buy strawberries with black spots or dark red color.
- It is recommended to choose strawberries that still have the stem and leaves attached to ensure they are fresh.
- Choose strawberries with seeds that are spaced farther apart, as they tend to be sweeter.
How to choose delicious raspberries:
- Choose thick and firm raspberries that are plump and dark in color.
- Avoid selecting raspberries with shriveled skin or that are soft and mushy.
- Raspberries that are still bright in color may not be fully ripe, so it’s best to avoid them.
Note: Coconut milk can be purchased in canned form available in all TasteVN supermarkets nationwide or ordered online at Bachhoaxanh.com or you can make it at home.

Wash the strawberries and raspberries after removing the stems. Then, dice them for easier blending. After washing, peel the lychee, remove the seeds, and the remaining lychee flesh will weigh about 300g. Cut the lychee flesh in half.

- Gently squeeze the lychee; if it still has elasticity, it means it’s fresh and should be chosen.
- Choose lychee when it still has a light fragrant smell.
- Avoid choosing lychees that have a strange smell or have withered stems.
Note: Typically, if it is not the right lychee season, you will find it hard to get good sweet lychee. In that case, you can use canned lychee to make these lychee smoothies!
