Make a Really Good Milkshake
Ever wanted to make a delicious milkshake, but couldn't get the taste just the way you wanted? Well, here is a milkshake that is good for everyone, and having ingredients you will be able to find around the kitchen.
Steps
- First, start with milk, of course.
- Never make a milkshake without milk. It's just that little ingredient that gets it the right consistency. If you don't use milk, you'll probably end up with a super-thick, lumpy shake.
- Next, you'll need a few scoops of ice cream.
- I advise you use triple or double chocolate flavour, so it's not all plain. So try finding a really nice brand of chocolate and vanilla mixed ice cream.
- Now, it's time for some banana.
- Slice little pieces and just toss them in. Only use half the banana, or less if you're not such a fan of this fruit. But, once it's in with the rest of the ingredients, it tastes really good! So be warned, without it you're shake will be really plain!
- Next, we have some peanut butter.
- If you're allergic, it's alright, this is not one of the important ingredients. It just adds a little flavour. If you are going to use some PB, just take a nice, generous spoonful. Too much can make the shake too globby and lumpy.
- Nutella or cake frosting!
- I don't use Nutella much for this recipe, but if you're really into it, then go for it. Vanilla frosting is good, not because it actually leaves a taste, but because it makes your shake nice and creamy!
- If you have any other sensible ingredients of your own, toss in!
- Don't start using salt and pepper, or paprika. As you've seen, I've stuck to the same category of food, so don't overdo it.
- Blend!
- I usually use my Magic Bullet, and it works wonderfully, so don't be afraid to use it if you have one for yourself.
- Pour and enjoy!
- All I really did to get this tasty milkshake was experiment. It's really easy, and anyone can do it. Just keep adding ingredients until you've got the right consistency, and the delicious taste you're looking for!

Tips
- Don't put ice cubes in. It makes it watery, and sometimes the blade can't get all the pieces, so you'll be drinking and suddenly come across sharp, tiny icicles!
- Have fun, and try not to use this during a diet. Sadly, it is full of carbs, but one shake every now and then can't be harmful.
Warnings
- Don't pour too much milk or you will have a milkshake that is like water.
- Make sure you don't forget to put the cover on the blender when you turn it on!
