Milkshake lovers rejoice. This five ingredient Strawberry Pineapple Milkshake is going to be your new favorite sweet treat. This isn’t your normal decadent or even boozy milkshake. It’s a fresh and flavorful summer milkshake, and all you need is a few ingredients! I keep most of the ingredients on hand at all times, so I can whip it up on a whim.

Ingredients

Ingredients on a marble countertop: vanilla ice cream, crushed pineapple, and strawberries.
  • Vanilla Ice Cream – This is key to a thick milkshake.
  • Milk – Not pictured but a good option if you don’t want a really thick milkshake. It will help break up all the ingredients in the blender making it blend quicker.
  • Strawberries – I prefer to use fresh strawberries for this recipe but frozen work. I also like to reserve a few fresh strawberries for garnish.
  • Crushed Pineapple – I always keep a can in my pantry at all times just so I can make this recipe.
  • Whipped Cream – You can make your own fresh whipped cream or you can use a can (like I do)!

Directions

In a blender combine the crushed pineapple, milk, strawberries, and vanilla ice cream until pureed about 30 seconds.

Blender with pink milkshake, empty glasses, and ice cream container with scoop.

Pour into two small glasses or one large glass. Top the strawberry milkshake with whipped cream and a fresh strawberry for garnish. Enjoy!

FAQs

How do you make a thick milkshake?

With this recipe I just add ice cream and the fruit. If you want a thick milkshake do not add ice. Ice will water down the milkshake making it less thick.

What can I add to my milkshake?

The sky is the limit. You can add cookies, brownies, cake, pie, sauces like caramel, chocolate, or even fudge. Want it boozy? Add Kahlua, a chocolate liqueur, vodka, brandy, bourbon or rum to your milkshake.

How do you make a milkshake without a blender?

Place all the ingredients into a large bowl. Use a spoon or a whisk to mix the ice cream and milk together. Then add in the fruit or other toppings and whisk until its to your desired consistency.
