Ingredients

Milkshake Base

  • 2 ripe bananas, sliced
  • 4 scoops vanilla ice cream
  • 2 scoops strawberry ice cream
  • 2 scoops chocolate ice cream
  • 2 cups milk

Flavors & Toppings

  • 1/4 cup chocolate syrup
  • 1/4 cup strawberry syrup
  • Whipped cream, for topping
  • Fresh strawberries, raspberries, and banana slices, for topping
  • Chopped nuts (optional)
  • Maraschino cherries (optional)
  • Granola (optional)
  • Chocolate wafers (optional)

Instructions

  1. Blend the Milkshake: Combine the sliced bananas, vanilla ice cream, strawberry ice cream, chocolate ice cream, and milk in a blender. Blend until the mixture is smooth and creamy with no lumps.
  2. Prepare Glasses with Chocolate Syrup: Drizzle chocolate syrup inside the glasses, letting it drip down the sides to create a decorative effect.
  3. Pour the Milkshake: Carefully pour the blended milkshake mixture into each of the chocolate syrup-prepared glasses, filling them almost to the top.
  4. Add Whipped Cream: Generously top each milkshake with whipped cream to create a luscious, fluffy layer on top.
  5. Drizzle Strawberry Syrup: Drizzle strawberry syrup over the whipped cream, adding a sweet and colorful accent.
  6. Garnish: Garnish each milkshake with fresh strawberries, raspberries, banana slices, chopped nuts if using, granola, chocolate wafers, and finish with a maraschino cherry to complete the classic banana split experience.

Notes

  • Use ripe bananas for the sweetest flavor and smoothest texture in the milkshake.
  • Adjust the amount of milk for desired thickness; less milk for thicker shakes, more for thinner consistency.
  • Optional toppings like nuts, granola, and chocolate wafers add a delightful crunch to contrast the creamy shake.
  • Serve immediately for the best taste and texture as the ice cream will melt over time.
  • You can substitute any ice cream flavors to customize your milkshake to your liking.
