Ingredients

1/2 pound fresh strawberries hulled and sliced
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 cups vanilla ice cream
1/2 cup milk

Instructions

In a mixing bowl, combine the sliced strawberries, sugar, and vanilla extract, and stir to combine well. Set aside for at least 20 minutes and up to 1 hour. The fresher your berries the less time it will take for them to get nice and juicy.
1/2 pound fresh strawberries, 2 tablespoons granulated sugar, 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
In a blender (or food processor if you don't have a blender) place the strawberries, ice cream, and milk. Blend until smooth.
4 cups vanilla ice cream, 1/2 cup milk
Pour into a glass and top with whipped cream to serve. Enjoy!

Notes

If your strawberries are super ripe and fresh, you can use less sugar. If they're unripe, use a little extra sugar.
Leftover milkshakes can be stored in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 3 months.
