Make A Milkshake

A milkshake is one of life’s simple pleasures.  My daughter and I often enjoy a milkshake at a cafe together, making memories as we share – one cup, two straws!  Unfortunately though, I do sometimes find she has a case of the sillies afterwards, so lately we have been making our own shakes at home.

We really use whatever we have in the kitchen at the time to make our shakes.  We start with a base of milk and fruit, and go from there!  Even if we add nothing else, whizzing up fruit and full cream milk in the blender makes frothy, yummy shakes that my toddler loves.

Berries are our favourite.  Partly because they taste great, and partly because my daughter just loves to watch the milk change colour in the blender.  Sometimes we add yoghurt to our berry shakes.  Bananas shakes are great too, especially with a scoop of icecream, a dash of honey and a little nutmeg.
