Two ingredient strawberry milkshake

We've been enjoying the sunshine this weekend, which has been thirsty work and called for strawberry milkshakes! This recipe makes enough for two large sundae-style glasses of milkshake, and with 200g of strawberries per glass, I'm pretty sure it'll count as one of your five a day.

Here's what to do to make these simple strawberry milkshakes...

Ingredients

Equipment

Instructions

1. Chuck all except two of the strawberries into a blender and whiz until smooth.
2. Add the ice cream and whiz again until it has an even pink colour.
3. Pour carefully into the glasses and add a straw to each.
4. Grab the two strawberries you saved earlier and make a slit from the tip to 3/4 of the way up.
5. Attach the strawberries to the side of the glass.

Simple, refreshing, delicious. If you wanted, you could add sugar or syrup, but I don't think it needs it as the strawberries are so sweet this time of year.

What's your favourite flavour of milkshake?

Here's the strawberry milkshake recipe again in an easy to print format.
