Make a decadent fruit-filled Strawberry Pineapple Milkshake with minimal ingredients and in 5 minutes time at home. Fresh strawberries with canned pineapple and vanilla ice cream all blended together make for a delicious milkshake in minutes.
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.
In this post you will learn the following information.
Ingredients
- 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.
Pour into two small glasses or one large glass. Top the strawberry milkshake with whipped cream and a fresh strawberry for garnish. Enjoy!
FAQs
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.
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.
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.
