Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients

  • ¾ cup Milk Whole milk recommended for creaminess; 2% works too.
  • 3 large Fresh strawberries, sliced Use fragrant, ripe strawberries for best flavor.
  • 3 pieces Ice cubes Use fresh, clear ice for best flavor.
  • 1 tablespoon White sugar Adjust sweetness based on strawberry ripeness.

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Add the sliced strawberries to your blender.
  • Measure the milk into a measuring cup and have the ice cubes and sugar at the ready.
  • If your strawberries are cold from the fridge, that’s fine — you want everything chilled.

Blending

  • Pour the milk over the berries, then add the ice cubes and sprinkle in the sugar.
  • Secure the blender lid and hold it down if your model tends to vibrate.
  • Turn the blender to high speed and let it run until the ice is completely crushed and the mixture looks smooth and frothy.
  • Taste the milkshake and adjust the sweetness if necessary by adding a little more sugar.
  • Give the blender one last spin for five seconds to integrate any adjustments.

Serving

  • Pour the milkshake into a tall chilled glass and serve right away while cold.
  • Garnish with a halved strawberry or a paper straw for a little show.

Notes

Milkshakes are best drunk immediately; the froth settles quickly. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 24 hours.
