Tips for Making It Perfect

• Prep Ahead: You can pre-scoop your ice cream and let it meditate in the fridge for about 10-15 minutes for easy blending.

• Make It Ahead: This milkshake is best consumed fresh. However, you can double the batch and store extra servings in the freezer. Just remember to give it a good stir before enjoying again.

Storage Instructions

This milkshake is best enjoyed immediately, but if you have leftovers, store in an airtight container in the freezer for up to one week. Before consuming, let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften just a touch for the best experience.
