18 Milkshake Recipes You Must Try

1 pint ice cream (try premium all-natural ice cream-low-fat ice cream will make your milkshake watery)

1 to 1 ½ cups milk (whole milk will give you the richest flavor, but you can use low-fat or skim milk, too. Dairy-free milks-such as soy milk, almond milk, and rice milk-also work fine.)

That's it. Just place those two ingredients in a blender with any flavorings, like syrups, spices, fruit, nuts, etc. and give it a whir. Don't overmix-you want your milkshake to be thick. And serve immediately.
