Common mistake & quick fix容易错在哪，怎么补救
Stop and unplug the blender before scraping the jar. Never put a spoon near moving blades.需要刮杯壁时，先停机并拔掉插头；刀片转动时不要伸入勺子。
Pour it through a fine-mesh strainer into a jug, pressing gently with a spoon. Toss the pulp, then stir the strained drink.
把饮品倒进细筛，滤到壶里，用勺子轻轻压一压。筛里的粗渣扔掉，再把滤好的汁搅匀。
The liquid is smooth, without seeds or coarse fibers.汁液中没有果籽或明显的粗纤维。

Divide between the two glasses. The ingredients should already be cold, so serve right away — no extra ice or water needed.

Know your ingredients认识食材
Ingredients explained食材讲解
Strawberries, washed and hulled洗净去蒂的草莓Vitamin C. Red to the shoulders, fragrant; wash just before eating.维C丰富。红到蒂、有香味；吃前再洗。
Granulated sugar白砂糖A little sugar balances salt and acidity; add gradually and taste as you go.少量糖能平衡咸和酸；分次加，边尝边调。
Fresh basil leaves, washed洗净的鲜罗勒叶Add at the end—heat dulls it. Store like flowers in water, not fridge.最后加，久煮会失香。像花一样插水里放，别冷藏。
Cookware厨具
Blender, measuring tools, two glasses and a fine strainer if straining搅拌机、量具、两个杯子；过滤时另备细筛
Make it a balanced meal营养搭配建议
Serve as an optional drink alongside a meal. It does not replace a meal.可作为随餐饮品，不代替正餐。
Why it works: aim for half the plate vegetables, a quarter protein, a quarter whole grains or starch — then let one rich dish be the star.搭配思路：半盘蔬菜、四分之一蛋白、四分之一主食；一桌里只让一道浓郁的菜当主角。
