Description
Indulge in the colorful Grimace Shake, a creamy blend of vanilla ice cream and purple fruit goodness. Topped with whipped cream and sprinkles, this fun treat is perfect for all ages!
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups vanilla ice cream
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1/2 cup purple food coloring (or 1 cup of purple fruit puree, like blueberries or blackberries)
- 1/4 cup whipped cream (for topping)
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup chocolate syrup (optional, for drizzling)
- 1/4 cup sprinkles (optional, for garnish)
- 1/2 cup crushed ice (optional, for a thicker shake)
Instructions
- In a blender, combine the vanilla ice cream and whole milk.
- Add the purple food coloring or purple fruit puree. If using food coloring, start with a few drops and blend, adding more until you reach your desired shade. If using fruit puree, it will add both color and flavor.
- Pour in the vanilla extract.
- If desired, add crushed ice for a thicker shake.
- Blend on high speed until smooth and creamy, ensuring no lumps remain.
- If the shake is too thick, add more milk, one tablespoon at a time, blending until desired consistency is reached.
- If too thin, add more ice cream and blend again.
- Use tall glasses or mason jars for serving.
- If using chocolate syrup, drizzle it inside the glasses before pouring in the shake.
- Pour the shake into the glasses, filling them about three-quarters full.
- Top each shake with a generous dollop of whipped cream.
- Sprinkle colorful sprinkles on top for a festive touch.
- Drizzle more chocolate syrup over the whipped cream if desired.
- Grab a straw and enjoy the creamy, fruity goodness.
- Share with friends or keep it all to yourself!
- Experiment with different flavors or toppings, like peanut butter or crushed cookies.
- If you have any leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the freezer. When ready to enjoy, let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes before blending again to restore the creamy texture.
Notes
- For a healthier option, consider using fruit puree instead of food coloring.
- Customize your shake with different toppings or flavors to suit your taste.
