Commonly Asked Questions
Can I make my milkshake without a blender?
Of course! Just add your ice cream and milk in a large bowl and use a whisk to mix them well. Once combined, pour it into a glass and that’s it! If you’re mixing in a lot of ingredients into your milkshake and you don’t have a blender, cut them into tiny pieces. Place your mixture in a closed container like a cocktail shaker to shake your mixture well without spilling. Continuously shake your mixture until it’s fully blended and you get that creamy texture. Chill the glass you’ll be using to serve and pour your mixed milkshake. Top with anything you like and enjoy.
