For 2 servings. Use a small 180 ml paper cup, a level eating spoon (about 15 ml) and a small teaspoon (about 5 ml).
How to fill the cup and spoons
Use the same cup and spoons throughout. Their sizes vary, so these amounts are approximate. Spoon flour in loosely and level the top without pressing. Measure vegetables after chopping, without packing them down. The amounts in g/ml are the original reference quantities. For part of a pack, use the specified pack weight and divide the contents evenly.

Step-by-step cooking
-
Step 1
Wash 6 strawberries and remove the green tops. Mash the berries with a fork in a small bowl; divide the mashed fruit between two clean glasses. Keep the yogurt and berries cold until you make the drinks.
-
Step 2
Pour 1/2 paper cup cold drinking yogurt and 1/4 paper cup (45 ml) plain soju into each glass. Stir slowly until the fruit streaks through the yogurt; do not add citrus juice, which may curdle it.
-
Step 3
Taste before adding a little honey. Add ice if using, stir once, and serve immediately. Return any unopened dairy to the refrigerator.
