Equipment

  • blender

Ingredients
  

  • 1/4 cup of light whipped topping
  • 1/2 cup of whole milk
  • 1/4 teaspoon of vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon of honey
  • 1/2 cup of thawed sweetened sliced strawberries
  • 3 cups of creamy vanilla ice cream

Instructions
 

Step 1: Gather Ingredients

  • First things first. Ensure you have all your ingredients ready. Measure out the strawberries, milk, vanilla, honey, whipped topping, and ice cream.

Step 2: Blend Strawberries

  • In a blender, add your sliced strawberries and honey. Blend on a low speed. This step will mix them together while maintaining some texture.

Step 3: Add Milk and Vanilla

  • Pour in the milk and add the vanilla extract. Blend on medium speed until the mixture is smooth. This adds that perfect creaminess we crave.

Step 4: Mix in Ice Cream

  • Now, it’s time for the star attraction. Add the ice cream and whipped topping. Blend on high speed until everything is well combined and smooth. This is where the milkshake gets its thick, luscious texture.

Step 5: Serve and Enjoy

  • Pour your strawberry milkshake into tall glasses, and don’t forget to top them with extra whipped cream and fresh strawberries if you want to impress!

Notes

  • Freshness Matters: Use ripe, sweet strawberries. They make a huge difference in taste.
  • Texture: Adjust the milk for desired thickness. Less milk means a thicker shake.
  • Ice Cream Quality: Choose high-quality vanilla ice cream for the best flavor.
  • Freeze your Glasses: Chill your serving glasses ahead of time. It keeps the milkshake cold for longer.
  • Experiment: Add other fruits, like bananas or blueberries, for a new twist.
