Tips In Making Chick-fil-A Chocolate Milkshake
Milkshake is a delicious drink famous for being frothy, sweet, and thickly rich. Milkshakes are sometimes mistaken as smoothies, but they differ when it comes to ingredients. While milkshakes are typically made with ice cream and milk, smoothies are made of frozen berries and purees.
We also believe that the best milkshakes are easily customizable. If you haven’t tried whipping your own milkshake drink before, here’s our guide on how to make a chocolate milkshake the Chick-Fil-A way.
- Soften the ice cream. Do not add your ice cream into the blender while it’s too hard as it will dilute the consistency of the milkshake.
- Avoid adding too much milk. We want it to have a creamy texture but not watery and runny.
- Add whatever ingredient you like. Keep on reading if you want to know our milkshake flavor and add-on suggestions.
Chocolate Milkshake Add-Ons And Toppings To Try
