Milkshake FAQs
What makes a milkshake thicker?
- To make a thicker milkshake, you can add more milk, cream, or ice cream. You could also try using frozen peaches instead of fresh ones for an extra thick shake!
- The ratio of ice cream to milk in a milkshake typically ranges from 1:1 to 2:1. So, for every cup of ice cream, you should use between one and two cups of milk. Adjust the amount according to your desired consistency.
What milk is best for milkshakes?
- Whole milk is the best choice for making milkshakes because it has a high-fat content and will give your milkshake a rich, creamy texture. However, you can also use low-fat or skim milk if preferred.
- For vegan milkshakes, you can use plant-based milk such as almond milk or oat milk.
- For keto milkshakes, you can use almond milk or coconut milk.
Is a fruit milkshake good for health?
Fruit milkshakes can be a healthy treat if you use fresh or frozen fruit, and dairy-free milk, and avoid adding too much sugar.
However, it’s important to remember that milkshakes are not typically considered healthy food. So enjoy them in moderation!
Is it okay to drink a milkshake every day?
It’s not recommended to drink a milkshake every day as they are often high in calories and sugar. Try to limit yourself to one or two milkshakes per week, and opt for healthier food choices the rest of the time.
Tips & Tricks
- Add some other flavors such as cinnamon or nutmeg for a little spice.
- Add some coconut milk for an extra tropical twist!
- You could even try blending in some other fruits like mangoes or raspberries for a truly unique flavor experience.
