Tips and variations

  • Use high-quality full-fat ice cream for the best flavor and creamy texture. The fat content determines how thick the milkshake becomes.
  • Blend briefly for the thickest result. Stop the blender as soon as the ingredients are just combined.
  • Try strawberry, vanilla, or chocolate variations. Add Oreo cookies for a premium homemade version.
