Frequently Asked Questions
Why is the ice cream added after blending rather than blended in with everything else?
The instructions blend all other ingredients first, then gently place a scoop of ice cream into the poured milkshake. This keeps the ice cream as a visible, scooped garnish rather than fully incorporating it, giving a richer texture and a nice presentation in tall glasses.
Can I make my own almond milk for this recipe?
Yes — the notes explain exactly how: blend 1 cup of blanched and peeled almonds with 3 cups of water, then strain through a fine sieve or muslin. The milk keeps refrigerated for 3 days, and the leftover almond meal can be added to breads, cakes, or muffins.
Can this be made without ice cream?
Yes — the notes explicitly say the strawberry milkshake can be served without ice cream. Use ice cubes (listed as optional in the ingredients) for a cold, lighter version.
