Total Time: 10 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 2 servings
Ingredients
- 2 cups vanilla ice cream
- 1 cup passion fruit juice
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Passion fruit pulp for garnish
Instructions
- Gather all ingredients and ensure they are fresh and chilled. Take the vanilla ice cream out of the freezer and let it soften slightly for easier blending.
- Place the vanilla ice cream into a high-powered blender. Make sure the ice cream is soft enough to blend smoothly but not completely melted.
- Pour the passion fruit juice directly into the blender with the ice cream. Use fresh or high-quality store-bought passion fruit juice for the best flavor.
- Add the milk and vanilla extract to the blender. The milk will help create a smoother, more drinkable consistency.
- Secure the blender lid tightly and blend the mixture on high speed for 30-45 seconds until completely smooth and frothy.
- Stop the blender and check the consistency. If too thick, add a little more milk. If too thin, add a bit more ice cream.
- Pour the shake into two tall glasses, leaving some space at the top for garnish.
- Spoon fresh passion fruit pulp on top of each shake as a garnish. The seeds and pulp will add texture and enhance the tropical flavor.
- Serve immediately while the shake is cold and frothy. Optional: Add a small straw or decorative garnish.
Tips
- Choose Quality Ingredients: For the best flavor, opt for fresh or high-quality store-bought passion fruit juice. The quality of your ingredients can make a significant difference in the final taste.
- Soften Your Ice Cream: Allow the vanilla ice cream to sit at room temperature for a few minutes before blending. This will make it easier to blend and result in a smoother shake.
- Adjust Consistency to Your Liking: If your shake turns out too thick, simply add a splash more milk and blend again. Conversely, if it’s too thin, add a bit more ice cream to achieve your desired consistency.
- Garnish Creatively: Don’t skip the passion fruit pulp garnish! It adds not only a burst of flavor but also a beautiful presentation. You can also sprinkle some toasted coconut or a mint leaf for an extra touch.
- Serve Immediately: For the best experience, serve your shake right after blending while it's still cold and frothy. Consider using chilled glasses to keep your shake refreshing for longer.
