THICK STRAWBERRY SHAKE



Before 2 months it was the time when I tasted strawberry's for the first time on the occasion of a birthday party. But I was not at all satifised by its flavour whereas smera liked a lot. As usual every weekend was a shopping weekend when I came across a lump amount of fresh dark Strawberries. It was soo attractive to me that it made me to take one pack of those. The same night I was delighted to prepare a shake out of these berries. Beleive me it was really filling and refreshing and also very easy to make. Some uses yogurt for the thickening process but here I have used adding the same flavour of strawberry icecream. Hope you too would like this!


INGREDIENTS.

8 to 9 Fresh Strawberries.

1 1/2 cup Milk.

1/4 cup Strawberry icecream.

3 tbs Sugar (as required) or (optional)

Crushed Ice (as required)

METHOD.

Combine all ingredients in blender.

Blend at high speed for about 1 min until smooth.

Thick strawberry shake is ready to serve.



I submit this recipe to WFY - JUICES AND ICE CREAM HOSTED BY EASY CRAFT OF SIMPLE INDIAN FOOD.
