    Ingredients & Substitutions

    • Fresh strawberries - You can substitute frozen strawberries or even other varieties of fresh or frozen berries. Using fresh fruit will give you the best flavor. If using frozen fruit, I recommend thawing it.
    • Ripe bananas - For more banana flavor, you can make a pure banana milkshake by omitting all berries.
    • Vanilla ice cream - You can substitute frozen yogurt to craft a healthy milkshake or use Greek yogurt for a nice quick breakfast. Otherwise, you can substitute strawberry ice cream for more strawberry flavor.
    • Milk - I recommend using whole milk, but you can substitute heavy cream for more decadence and a thicker shake. Otherwise, coconut milk would taste amazing!
    • Vanilla extract

    There is no added sugar in this strawberry banana shake, or any artificial sweeteners because the fruit and ice cream are sufficiently sweet. However, you can add the sweetener of your choice if desired. Options include maple syrup, honey, or this vanilla syrup.

    This strawberry banana shake is simple to make because there is no cooking involved for this easy recipe. Add your fresh sliced strawberries, banana slices, ice cream, milk, and vanilla extract to your high powered blender and pureed until smooth. If you like a thick milkshake, add less milk.

      I omitted the vanilla extract and it was still too sweet. Next time using less vanilla ice cream for sure...cant taste banana at all.

      Haven't tried it yet, but sounds delicious! Thanks for the tip about Sir Bananas Milk. Had never heard of it, but will look for it at Wal Mart next time I go. Hope my Wal Mart carries it.
