Equipment

Ingredients

  • ¾-1¼ cup milk (regular or vegan)
  • ½ cup vanilla ice cream or vanilla frozen yogurt (regular or vegan)
  • 1 large banana (fresh or frozen)
  • cups strawberries (fresh or frozen)

Instructions

  • This recipe makes 2 milkshakes. If making for one, divide the ingredients in half. Add ice cream, strawberries, diced banana, and milk to a blender then blend until smooth. Depending on your blender, you may need to add more milk if the milkshake seems too thick. You can also slice the fruit into smaller pieces if you don't have a high powered blender.
  • Divide the milkshake between two glasses. Top with whipped cream or another scoop of ice cream if desired, and enjoy!

Notes

MILK: If the milkshake seems too thick, slowly add more milk until your desired consistency is reached. 
The milkshake will be sweeter if you use sweetened vegan milk instead of unsweetened.
FROZEN OR FRESH FRUIT: Frozen fruit will make the milkshake thicker, more like a smoothie consistency. Using fresh bananas and strawberries will make it more of a thinner milkshake consistency.
BLENDER: Use a high powdered blender if possible, to create a smooth consistency.
ICE CREAM: You can swap out the ice cream for frozen yogurt or greek yogurt. You can also use strawberry ice cream instead of vanilla ice cream. 
HEALTHIER VERSION: For a healthier version of this milkshake, you can make it more like a smoothie. Swap out the ice cream for yogurt (regular, greek, or vegan) or swap the ice cream out for milk.
