Prepare the strawberry mix-ins: Combine 5 ounces chopped strawberries and 1 tablespoon maple syrup in a bowl. Mix to combine and set aside.
Make the strawberry syrup: Purée 8 ounces chopped strawberries using a blender, immersion blender, or food processor.
Bring to a boil: Transfer the purée to a small saucepan with 3 tablespoons maple syrup and salt. Once it starts to bubble, turn off the heat and set in the fridge until cool.
Assemble the drink: In two 16-ounce glasses, add ½ cup ice, ½ cup of the cooled strawberry syrup, and 1 heaping tablespoon of the strawberry mix-ins (to each glass). Add 1 cup unsweetened coconut milk (or your favorite plant milk) to each glass. Then, finish off with 2 heaping tablespoons of strawberry mix-ins. Enjoy

Use ripe strawberries: The riper they are, the sweeter your drink will be , so you may not need as much sweetener.
