The Best Strawberry Milkshake
My mom has always loved cold drinks like smoothies, milkshakes, and açaí bowls. She used to make them often, trying out all kinds of milkshakes like chocolate, vanilla, cookies and cream, and also her specialty, strawberry milkshakes.
Her recipe is a family favorite and now a favorite in my family.
Quick Tip
If your ice cream is hard as a rock, take it out of the freezer and let it soften slightly for a few minutes.
Ingredients
- Strawberries: Bring the sweet, fruity flavor in your strawberry milkshake.
- Vanilla Extract: Enhances the overall flavor. You can skip it if you want.
- Vanilla Bean Ice Cream: Makes the shake creamy and sweet, forming the shake’s base.
- Whole Milk: Controls how thick the shake is. Use less if you want a thicker shake.
- Whipped Cream and Freeze-Dried Strawberries (skippable): Make it look fun while adding some crunch.
How To Make A Strawberry Milkshake
- Prepare: Chill a glass in the fridge. Wash and then slice the strawberries.
- Blend: Add all the ingredients to a blender. Blend until smooth.
- Serve: Pour into a cold glass. Add whipped cream and crushed freeze-dried strawberries if you want. Then enjoy!
Tips For Success
- Chill Glasses: Put the glasses in the fridge or freezer before making so it’s extra cold.
- Adjust Thickness: Want it thicker? Use less milk. Want it thinner? Add more milk.
- Strawberries: Wash and dry them well before slicing for the strawberry milkshake.
- Choose Quality Ice Cream: Use a good vanilla bean ice cream for the best flavor.
