Strawberry Milkshake

Here is a really simple recipe to kick start the New Year! Milkshake of any kind is our family favorite.  My daughter loves strawberries; somehow I am not a huge fan of these sour berries. But I sure love the lovely pink milkshake made out of these.

Talking of Milkshakes reminds me of my college days in Cochin. I have never had as many different kinds of milkshakes ever after that. There were so many different varieties available, Sharjah Shake, Oman Shake, Date Shake, and Dry Fruits Shake are just a few to name. These milkshakes used to be so thick, that we were given a straw as well as a spoon to have it.

Here’s my way of preparing the Strawberry Milkshake.

Serves: 3

What you’ll need

1. Strawberries – 10 to 12
2. Cold Milk – 3 Cups
3.  Vanilla Ice Cream – 2 Scoops (Optional)
4. Sugar – According to taste

Method

1. Wash the berries and chop them roughly.
2.  Blend the berries and sugar until smooth.
3. Next add the ice cream and milk and blend until frothy.

Transfer into serving glasses. Serve chilled.

Note: Adding ice cream is totally optional, but using it gives a nice creamy texture.
You could use full cream instead of ice cream too.
