Q. Is there any possible way to make a Shake without and Ice Cream or Vanilla Extract? I'm just wondering because I bought a new blender and I have no ice cream! So please respond and tell me if there is any possible way to make a shake with out ice cream.


Answer
How to Make a Milkshake Without Ice Cream:
Ingredients

In a Bag

2 cups (475 ml) milk or half-and-half
1 tsp (5 g) sugar
12 ice cubes
Dash of vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon (pinch) salt
Chocolate syrup or other flavor (optional and to taste)
In the Blender

12 ice cubes
2 cups (475 ml) milk
1 tsp (5 g) vanilla extract
3/4 c (100 g) Sugar
Chocolate syrup or other flavor (optional and to taste)

Steps
1 Take a small plastic bag and fill it with milk. It needs to be resealable above all else.
2 Put a teaspoon of sugar in the milk. Lightly stir to combine.
3 Add a few drops of vanilla extract/essence into the bag. Stir the vanilla in thoroughly.
4 Fill the big bag up halfway with ice. It needs to be able to contain a smaller bag and be sealed. A gallon-sized resealable bag is ideal.
5 Put the bag with the mixture in the bigger bag. The ice is simply to get the chemical reactions going -- you won't be consuming it. It will remain separate from the milk mixture.
6 Add 1/4 teaspoon of salt into the bigger bag. This has to do with exothermic reactions and is an imperative step to your mixture thickening!
7 Shake for about 5-7 minutes, or until mushy like a milkshake. It requires vigorous shaking for the mixture to thicken. If 7 minutes have passed and it's not thick enough, shake it for a few more.
8 Open up the small bag and pour it into a cup. Enjoy your shake!

Alternate Method:

1 Measure out 2 cups (475 ml) milk, 1 tsp (5 g) vanilla extract, and chocolate syrup (if desired). Put them into a blender and mix for 15-20 seconds. This circulates the air.
2 Put 3/4 cup (100 g) sugar into the blender. Blend for 5 - 10 seconds more.
3 Add the ice. This will work best with pre-crushed ice. Watch it as it blends -- if it blends too much, it will get quite runny.
4 Serve and enjoy. Consume immediately -- it's best when cold and the ice still gives it texture.
