Banana Milkshake

Ingredients

• 1-2 Bananas
• 1 Cup  Ice
• 1/2 Cup Milk
• 3 Tsp Sugar
• 1 Scoop Vanilla Icecream
• 2 Tsp Vanilla extract
• 4-6 Chopped Almonds
• Additional Flavors ( Mango, Pineapple, Blueberry)

Method

1. Put a sliced banana or two into the blender. It's best if frozen. As long as it's ripe, it'll be fine. When it's frozen, it's colder and it eliminates the need for more ice. 
2. Add 1/2 cup milk and 1 cup ice to the blender. If the ice is crushed, it'll be much easier on your blender and the process will go a lot faster.
3. Add a scoop of ice cream. This is where your creativity can take over. Vanilla is standard and will let the banana shine.
4. Add 4-6 chopped almonds. If you don't have almonds on hand but would like something else in your milkshake, consider adding 1/2 cup of oats, quinoa or peanut butter.
5. Blend ingredients until mixture is smooth. If ice gets lodged in the bottom of your blender, take your spoon and mix it between blending sessions. Aside from that, the blending process should take a minute or two.
6. Add sugar to taste. A teaspoon or two ought to be enough.
7. Pour into frosted mugs. In a cold mug, the milkshake will stay cold and thick longer. If you have leftovers, keep them in the fridge or the freezer until you crave more.
8. If you'd like, garnish it with a cherry, whip cream, chocolate chips, or chopped almonds.
