8 minThis is the easiest boozy milkshake you’ll ever make: vanilla ice cream plus amaretto, blended smooth and served ice-cold.
The almond liqueur flavors the vanilla without overpowering it, creating a drink that tastes like liquid almond cookies.
Top it with a maraschino cherry for that classic cocktail touch.
Kitchen Tips
- Soften slightly: Let the ice cream sit at room temp for 5 minutes before blending so it’s easier to blend smooth without overworking the motor.
- Adjust strength: Start with the recommended amount of amaretto and add more to taste; too much makes it syrupy instead of creamy.
- Blend just enough: Stop as soon as everything is smooth; over-blending melts the ice cream and makes the drink thin and watery.
