You will need a blender for this recipe.

I love milkshakes. I miss milkshakes. I thought I would have to give them up. I don’t, thanks to the lovely people at Swedish Glace who make awesome vegan vanilla ice cream. Unfortunately, I am not currently getting paid to praise their product (although I’m willing to whore out this blog for some free ice cream people), but this ice cream truly is a great replacement product, almost certainly better than it non-vegan counterparts. Just don’t try their raspberry flavored one, it’s not good, it’s not good at all (tastes like medicine, and not like the good calpol stuff). Anyway, the point is I have a recipe for vegan banana milkshakes! Exciting, isn’t it?

Ingredients:

1 large/ripe banana

100ml rice milk (or other non-dairy milk, I have tried it with soya milk, it’s not quite as good)

2 (heaped) tbsp vegan vanilla ice cream (I used Swedish Glace Vanilla ice cream)

Cocoa powder for sprinkling on top (if you feel like it)

Method:

Peel and chop the banana and put it in the blender, blend it until pulverized Add the soya milk and blend until mixed together well Then add the ice cream, blend until it is liquid Pour into a cup, if you want it extra cool, put it in the fridge for 5 minutes, otherwise, sprinkle with cocoa and serve

If you would like a chocolate/banana milkshake, add extra cocoa powder to the mix at the same time as the soya milk (1 heaped tbsp)
