Matcha Mint Chocolate Chip Milkshake
Ingredients:
- 2 cups vanilla ice cream
- 1 cup milk (dairy or any plant-based alternative)
- 2 tablespoons matcha green tea powder
- 1/2 teaspoon peppermint extract
- 1/4 cup chocolate chips
- Whipped cream, for topping (optional)
- Extra chocolate chips or mint leaves, for garnish (optional)
Instructions:
1. Prepare Ingredients:
- If your matcha green tea powder tends to clump, sift it first to ensure a smooth texture in the milkshake.
2. Blend the Milkshake:
- In a blender, combine the vanilla ice cream, milk, sifted matcha green tea powder, peppermint extract, and chocolate chips. If you prefer a thicker consistency, you can add a few ice cubes to the blender.
3. Mix Until Smooth:
- Blend on high until the mixture is smooth and creamy. The chocolate chips should be well mixed but still offer a bit of texture.
4. Serve:
- Pour the milkshake into glasses immediately after blending.
5. Add Toppings:
- Top with whipped cream if desired and sprinkle some extra chocolate chips or a few fresh mint leaves on top for enhanced flavor and a decorative touch.
