A Strawberry Summer

These Fresh and Easy Strawberry Recipes Will Have You Singing Strawberry Fields Forever!

Whether you’re enjoying picnics in the park or waiting out afternoon sun showers by the pool, there’s no better way to celebrate the warm weather than strawberries — they practically scream out “summer is here!” If you’re looking for ways to use those piles of perfectly red strawberries from your local “pick your own” farm (or the pints you couldn’t pass up at the grocery store), we have the best recipes to make sure no strawberry gets left behind! 

Start your day off right with a Strawberry Mint Smoothie! We love a sweet, healthy strawberry smoothie that puts a pep in your step and boosts your immune system (thanks, bee pollen!) The mix of the creamy Greek yogurt and the refreshing mint makes this the smoothie of the summer. Plus, this recipe is perfect for using up some of those frozen strawberries you packed away for later.

   

A fruity Strawberry and Honeycomb Salad is our favorite way to get a little sweet with our greens. With a topping of sliced almonds, chopped mint and fresh lemon juice, this salad is the perfect combination of sweet and savory with a little bit of crunch — and it’s vegan!

Nothing perks up a workday at the Hive like a sweet, refreshing, bright red Strawberry Honey Ice Pops at the courtyard picnic table. These homemade ice pops pack strawberries, thyme, fresh orange juice, and of course, Savannah Bee Co. honey into a delicious summertime dessert.

Move over strawberry shortcake — this is the strawberry dessert of the summer. Our Strawberry Lemon Ice Box Pie is packed with strawberry, lemon and cream cheese filling and topped with a heavenly sweet whipped cream. Easy to make ahead and served on a pretzel, brown sugar and butter crust, this ice box pie looks and tastes like a million bucks!
