What Ingredients Are In An Alcoholic Chocolate Milkshake?
A printable recipe card with quantities and instructions is below.
- Ice Cream – Of course, ice cream is an ingredient, but did you know it takes 3 gallons of milk to make a gallon of ice cream (courtesy of Ben & Jerry’s)? Well, that is the fun fact for the day. Even though Ben & Jerry’s have a ton of flavors, I use plain vanilla.
- Chocolate Syrup – Chocolate syrup = chocolate shake = yummy
- Liqueur – You must have alcohol if you are going to have a milkshake with alcohol. Baileys Irish Cream is perfect for this recipe.
How To Make The Best Chocolate Alcoholic Milkshake?
This is the easy part.
- In a blender, combine the ice cream, chocolate syrup, and Irish Cream.
- Pour into glasses.
- Serve and enjoy!!
Optional Additions
You may want to deck the milkshake out. These are just a few of the options to load it up.
- Whipped Cream – Yes, please! Whipped cream makes this chocolate alcoholic milkshake so good. The extra creaminess totally sets it off.
- Cherry – Now, this is just getting pretty. A milkshake is just a little more special with a cherry on top. Maraschino cherries are the best.
- Chopped Pecans – This is getting more into the sundae category, but my dad puts chopped pecans on his. No rules, right?
Pro Tips
- You can halve the recipe for a single-serving milkshake with alcohol. Instead of a blender, a milkshake maker is perfect for single servings.
