Recipe Introduction


For a decadent springtime splurge, prepare this glorious pink dessert with the finest, ripest strawberries and richest homemade ice cream. In fact, a good gauge for the perfect berry shake is to keep adding the strawberries until the color is right�a bright shocking pink!


List of Ingredients








(Serves 4)



� 2 cups quartered ripe strawberries, plus 4 whole berries for garnish
� 1⁄2 cup sugar
� 8 scoops Strawberry Ice Cream
� 2⁄3 cup half-and-half
� Lightly sweetened whipped cream
Place the strawberries in a large bowl, add the sugar, and toss to coat. Cover and let the strawberries macerate at room temperature for 2 hours. (The strawberries can be macerated up to 1 day in advance and refrigerated, covered.)
Put the strawberries and their juices into a blender or a food processor and process to a rough puree. Transfer to a bowl.
Make two shakes at a time: Add 4 scoops of the ice cream and half of the strawberry puree to the blender, add half of the half-and-half, and blend until thoroughly combined.
Pour into two chilled tall glasses. Repeat to make the remaining two milk shakes. Garnish each with a whole strawberry and a little spoonful of whipped cream. Serve with straws.
