In a medium bowl, combine the strawberries, sugar, lemon juice, and vanilla bean paste. Use a pastry blender or potato masher to mash the strawberries up a bit with the other ingredients. Stir in the water. Allow the mixture to sit for at least 15 minutes or up to an hour.
Pour the strawberry mixture into a blender and blend on high until completely liquid. Add the coconut milk and blend again–you can add more if you’d like it creamier.
Serve the drink over ice with sprigs of fresh mint for garnish. If you’d like to make this ahead of time, store in the fridge and blend well before serving.
