To make a classic milkshake, you need just two main ingredients: ice cream and milk. Here's a simple step-by-step guide:

Ingredients

• About 3 to 5 scoops of full-fat ice cream (approximately 1 ¾ to 2 cups)
• ¼ to ½ cup of milk (whole milk is best for creaminess)

Instructions

1. Let the ice cream soften slightly at room temperature for about 5 minutes to make scooping easier.
2. Add the ice cream to a blender.
3. Pour in the milk. Adding the milk first can help the blending process.
4. Blend on low speed until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Adjust the milk quantity if you want a thinner or thicker shake.
5. Pour the milkshake into a glass.
6. Optionally, garnish with whipped cream, sprinkles, and a cherry on top.

Tips

• Use high-quality, full-fat ice cream for the creamiest texture.
• Avoid adding ice, as it will water down the milkshake.
• You can customize your milkshake by adding flavors like chocolate syrup, fruit, or cookies before blending.
• For an extra creamy shake, you can substitute milk with heavy cream.
• To keep your milkshake cold longer, chill your glass in the freezer before serving.

This method yields a perfectly balanced milkshake that is creamy but drinkable through a straw
