Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups vanilla ice cream preferably slightly softened
  • 1 cup milk whole or 2%
  • 0.5 cup ice cubes for extra chill
  • 2 shots bourbon or rum adjust to taste

Equipment

  • Blender
  • Measuring Cups and Spoons

Method
 

  1. Measure out the vanilla ice cream, milk, ice cubes, and bourbon or rum.
  2. Add the ice cream, milk, ice cubes, and alcohol into the blender.
  3. Secure the lid on the blender and blend on high speed until the mixture is smooth and frosty, about 30-45 seconds. You should see it turn into a thick, icy slurry with a creamy texture.
  4. Stop the blender and check the consistency. If it's too thick, add a splash of milk and pulse a few times; if too thin, add a few more ice cubes and blend again.
  5. Once the mixture is thick, creamy, and frozen-looking with tiny ice crystals, pour it into chilled glasses.
  6. Garnish with a small sprig of mint or a slice of citrus if desired, and serve immediately with a straw or spoon for scooping.

Notes

For a richer flavor, try adding a dash of vanilla extract or top with whipped cream and a cherry for presentation.
