• 1 cup shaved ice, made by putting ice cubes in a resealable storage bag and crushing them with a can of soup or any other heavy object

Preparation

Step 1

Pack the Ice Cream down into a blender. Add the banana, ice, sugar, and salt. Pour one cup of the milk over the top.
Cover and blend everything until it's nice and creamy. With the blender still going, open the top and gently add more milk until the shake gets to your desired thickness. Mine is thick and viscous and drinkable with the ice shavings as a backdrop.
Pour the milkshake into a frozen glass and garnish with crushed Frosted Flakes and a drizzle of caramel, if you wish.
