Milkshake Slushie

A milkshake slushie transforms a classic creamy milkshake into a cold, icy treat by blending flavoring ingredients with ice and milk. The result is a semi-frozen dessert with a textured balance of smooth, icy crunch and creamy areas, resembling a snow globe of flavors and textures.

Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup milk preferably cold
  • 2 cups ice cubes adjust for thickness
  • 1 flavor flavored syrup or fruit puree for example, chocolate, strawberry, or vanilla

Equipment

  • Blender
  • Measuring cups and spoons

Method
 

  1. Measure out your milk and place it in the blender, along with the flavored syrup or fruit puree.
  2. Add the ice cubes to the blender, filling it up to about two-thirds full to ensure a good icy texture.
  3. Secure the lid and blend on high speed until the mixture is thick, frosty, and the ice is broken down into small icy crystals—this should take about 30-60 seconds. Listen for a crunching sound as the ice blends smoothly into the creamy base.
  4. Stop the blender and check the consistency— if it’s too slushy or runny, add a few more ice cubes and blend again for a crunchier texture. If it’s too thick to pour, stir in a splash of milk.
  5. Pour the icy mixture into glasses, watching the swirls of flavor and icy shards as it flows out of the blender. The surface should be frosty and bubbling slightly around the edges.
  6. Serve immediately with a straw or spoon, enjoying the satisfying contrast of smooth and crunchy textures in each spoonful or sip.

Notes

For extra flavor, top with whipped cream or sprinkles. Adjust the amount of ice for your preferred consistency—more for crunch, less for creaminess. Serve immediately for the best icy texture.
