What does it mean?
"Fresa" (literally "strawberry") describes someone preppy, posh, or stuck-up — think a spoiled rich kid with a particular accent and vocabulary. A "niña fresa" is a posh girl; "hablar fresa" is to talk in that affected way. It can be playful or mildly critical depending on tone.
How to use it
Casual and a little judgmental — fine among friends, but it labels someone, so use it with care. Can be affectionate teasing or a real put-down depending on context.
