Description

A creamy vanilla milkshake with a cool mint flavor that delivers the nostalgic drive-through favorite, while using real dairy and natural peppermint instead of artificial syrups and dyes. The smooth texture and refreshing mint taste bring back the classic seasonal treat many people remember each spring. Simple ingredients recreate the same festive flavor without unnecessary additives. Real dairy and natural peppermint keep the shake rich, refreshing, and clean.

Ingredients

2 Cups of Vanilla Ice Cream
1 Cup of Milk
1/2 Teaspoon of Organic Peppermint Extract
Natural Food Coloring

Equipment

Blender
Milkshake Glass
Natural Straws
Liquid Measuring Cup
Measuring Spoons
Stainless Steel Ice Cream Scoop

Instructions

Add ice cream, milk, and peppermint extract to blender.
Blend until smooth and thick, about 20-30 seconds.
Add natural green coloring if desired and blend briefly just until the color is evenly distributed
Pour into glasses and serve immediately.

Notes

Use high quality vanilla ice cream because the flavor of the milkshake comes mostly from the ice cream.
Add the milk slowly if a thicker milkshake texture is preferred.
Blend only until smooth so the shake stays thick instead of becoming thin.
Freeze the serving glasses for a few minutes before serving for an extra cold milkshake.

Phase:
Ovulatory Phase. Dairy provides protein and fats that support hormone production during ovulation, while peppermint offers a refreshing flavor that many people crave when energy and metabolism are naturally higher during this phase.

Season:
Early Spring. Mint naturally aligns with spring flavors and the lighter, refreshing foods people tend to enjoy as winter ends.

Storage:
Best served immediately. Milkshakes lose their thick texture if stored.
