Equipment

  • Blender: to mix everything nice and smooth.
  • Measuring cups and spoons: for precise ingredient amounts.
  • Tall glass: to serve the milkshake with flair.
  • Straw: adds a fun touch.
  • Ice cream scoop: to easily handle the ice cream.
  • Having this equipment ready makes the process much smoother. Using ice cream scoopers and measuring tools helps with keeping everything neat and simple.

Ingredients

The ingredients are what make this shake special 😋. Here’s what I use:

  • 2 cups vanilla ice cream: gives a rich creamy base.
  • 1 cup milk: keeps the shake smooth and easy to sip.
  • 1 tbsp molasses: adds deep sweetness.
  • 1 tsp ground ginger: for that classic gingerbread flavor.
  • 1 tsp cinnamon: to give a warm spicy kick.
  • Whipped cream: optional for topping.
  • Crushed gingerbread cookies: optional for garnish.

It's easy to adjust the spices to suit your taste. More ginger or cinnamon can make it even more flavorful.

Instructions

Making this shake is so fun and easy. Here's how I do it:

  • Blend Ice Cream and Milk: I start by placing the ice cream and milk in the blender. Blend until smooth.
  • Add Molasses and Spices: Pour in the molasses, ginger, and cinnamon. Blend again till everything combines well.
  • Taste and Adjust: I like to taste a little to see if it needs more spice. Adjust if needed.
  • Serve and Garnish: Pour into a tall glass. Top with whipped cream and sprinkle crushed cookies 🍪 if desired.

Make sure to serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.

    Notes

    A few tips make this mocktail even better 🎉:
    Dairy-Free Option: Swap the ice cream and milk for vegan versions.
    Extra Spicy: Add a dash of nutmeg for more warmth.
    Kid-Friendly: Kids love decorating with extra cookie crumbs or candy sprinkles.
    I like to experiment with garnishes for more fun. Feel free to personalize your shake to make it uniquely yours.
