Milkshakes are a classic favorite: creamy, sweet, and cold, they hit the spot whether you’re on your way home from work or just having a craving. And best of all—you don’t have to stop by the local burger joint to get your fix. It’s actually really easy to make milkshakes at home, and here’s how.
Ingredients
- Ice cream
- Milk
- Mix-ins
- Toppings
Instructions
Okay, so milkshakes may not be the healthiest thing in the world, but they’re incredibly simple. Just blend up ice cream and milk in a blender until it reaches your desired consistency. Pour it into a tall glass, top with some whipped cream and maybe a cherry and voila!
The fun part comes in customizing it according to your preferences. For instance, choosing your favorite ice cream flavor. Heck, you can even choose flavored milk if you want. Of course, if you’re vegan or dairy-free, go with some plant-based milk and ice cream.
You can also add mix-ins straight to the blender if you want. Think chocolate syrup, marshmallow fluff, cookie bits, or chocolate chips. Then you can go wild with the toppings. Want to stick a whole brownie on top? Why not! A strawberry to feel healthier? Go for it! Just don’t be surprised when all the boys show up in your yard.
