As summer temperatures climb, I find myself craving something cooler than the usual cold drinks. But instead of just pouring a generic shake, I love experimenting with a milkshake slushie that captures that perfect icy sweetness. It’s a playful way to enjoy nostalgic flavors while staying refreshed in the chaos of a heatwave.
This recipe isn’t just about blending ice and milk; it’s about creating a texture that’s delightfully thick yet easily drinkable. The secret lies in the way the ingredients come together, giving each sip a burst of flavor and an ice-cold crunch. It’s a fun project that makes your frozen drinks feel like a mini adventure.

Milkshake Slushie
This milkshake slushie combines creamy milk and sweetened ice for a thick, icy beverage with a satisfying crunch. Blended until smooth and frosty, it features a textured appearance that’s thick yet easily drinkable, perfect for hot weather refreshment. The final result is a visually appealing, cold beverage with a mottled, icy surface and a velvety consistency.

- Measure out the vanilla ice cream, milk, sugar, and ice cubes, then set everything nearby for easy access.
- Add the vanilla ice cream, milk, and sugar into the blender. Secure the lid tightly.
- Pulse the blender a few times to break up the larger ice cubes, then blend on high for about 30-40 seconds until the mixture is thick, frosty, and smooth, with visible icy particles throughout.
- Stop the blender and check the texture; it should be creamy yet with a noticeable icy crunch. If too thick, add a splash more milk and blend briefly.
- Pour the milkshake slushie into tall glasses, filling them almost to the top to showcase the icy texture.
- Serve immediately with a straw or spoon to enjoy the thick, icy-smooth texture and bursting flavors.
