Vanilla Milkshake – A Recipe

I haven’t shared a recipe in a long time. Last weekend, I made this and my son and I enjoyed it…a lot! My hubby only had a few sips since he doesn’t care for milkshakes…much! He might drink a little bit, but not too much. He prefers straight-up ice cream!

Vanilla Milkshake


2 cups of Breyers vanilla ice cream (you could use any brand, but I’m partial to Breyer’s)
1 cup of cold whole milk
1 teaspoon of vanilla extract

Place all ingredients into a blender and blend until smooth. You might have to stop your blender periodically if the mixture gets stiff, and move the mixture around with a plastic spatula. Once mixture is smooth, pour into tall glasses.

Serves 2.

When we drank this last weekend, I took one sip and thought it tasted heavenly! It’s such a simple recipe, but it tastes so good!

My son loved it! He drank all of his and half of mine! Also, if you want to cut calories, you can use non-fat/low-fat/sugar-free ice cream and skim or low-fat milk. However, I’m sure it will affect the taste.

If you want to do this, and get optimal taste, use the Breyer’s ice cream! It’s a simple ice cream with only a few ingredients, but it has a nice, natural flavor, and it just tastes so good in this recipe.

If you try this recipe, email me or leave a comment on the blog and let me know if you enjoyed it! This will be a cool summertime treat to enjoy in the coming months!
