15 Homemade Milkshakes That Will Make Your Mouth Water

In our house, making delicious homemade milkshakes together on a Friday night and watching movies while we sip them is a family tradition. It doesn’t matter what time of year it is or what the weather is like outside; every two weeks or so, we stay in for milkshakes and movies! That’s why we’ve always got our eyes peeled for fantastic new milkshake recipes we haven’t made at home with our kids yet before.

Just in case you love the idea of making your very own uniquely flavoured milkshakes just as much as we do, if not more, here are 15 of the very best recipes we’ve come across so far in our never-ending search!

1. Homemade French vanilla milkshake

That’s precisely what The Rebel Chick‘s tutorial is here to show us how to do. Never let anyone tell you the good old classics can’t be exciting choices now and then!

2. Oreo crumble milkshake

This mouthwatering recipe takes the traditionally delicious concept of cookies and cream flavours to a whole new level.

3. Mint chocolate chip milkshake

Once again, mint chocolate chip ice cream is actually one of our very favourite ice cream flavours in the whole parlour, but there’s an even more delicious way to make a milkshake flavoured like it than just by using the ice cream as the base.

4. Homemade chocolate peanut butter milkshake
