What do you need

1 Get a large enough container with a lid or a shaker cup. Since you don't have a blender, you can use a lidded container or shaker to make your cocktail. In these containers you will mix the required ingredients.

Use a container with a lid to mix ingredients and store your milkshake. However, you can also use a large jar with a lid, such as a bottle or glass canning jar with a screw cap, if you have one.
If you want to make a cocktail, you can use a shaker.
Note. If using a bottle with a ball whisk, mix the dry ingredients into the milk first. Then add ice cream.

2 Take ice cream and place it in a container. Since you don't have a blender, use a slightly melted ice cream. Thanks to this, you will be able to prepare an airy cocktail. If you use ice cream with a dense consistency, you will get a creamy cocktail. However, mixing the ingredients will be more difficult.

For the ice cream to acquire the required consistency, let it melt at room temperature for 10-15 minutes, or reheat in the microwave for 20 seconds.
You can also use frozen yogurt or sorbet instead of ice cream.
Make ice cream. Homemade ice cream tastes great and has the right texture for a cocktail.

3 Add milk. Pour milk into a container on top of the ice cream. Stick to the following proportion: Mix three parts ice cream and one part milk.

Like ice cream, the consistency of the milk affects whether or not you make a creamy shake. If you want a creamy shake, use a thicker and thicker milk.
If you are adding dry powder such as malt or protein powder, mix it with milk first.
If you have a bottle with a whisk, use it to mix the powder and milk.

4 Add other ingredients. If you want to add fruit or candy to your milkshake, do so by placing them in a milk / ice cream mixture.

If you are adding fruit or candy pieces to your smoothie, crush them in a bowl or use a mortar and pestle to grind the above ingredients. Do this before adding them to the container. This allows you to mix the ingredients effortlessly.

5 Crush and stir with a spoon. Before shaking the ingredients thoroughly, take a spoon and mix the contents of the container well. Doing this will distribute the ingredients evenly and soften the ice cream.

When you see that there are no ice cream lumps left and that your drink has the desired consistency, you can stop mixing the main ingredients.

6 Close the jar or container with a lid and shake the container well. Do this carefully so that the milk, flavor and ice cream mix well with each other, and you get a mass of uniform consistency.

Shake container well. Hold the container firmly on both sides and shake it well.
Shake the container for 15 seconds. You can continue to shake the container of ingredients until you get the mass you want.

7 Enjoy your milkshake. After shaking the container thoroughly, remove the lid, grab a straw and taste the cocktail. If your shake is too thin, add another scoop of ice cream. If it's too thick, add some milk and shake well again.

Once you have a drink with the consistency you want, grab a straw or spoon and enjoy the flavor!

Method 2 of 2: Mixing a Shake in a Bowl

1 Take a large bowl. Since you do not have a blender, which is a good tool for making a milkshake, you will need a large container in which you will mix the required ingredients.
- Alternatively, you can use an electric mixer or food processor instead of a blender if you have these appliances.
- If you don't have an electric mixer, you can use a regular whisk.
2 Add ice cream. Slightly melted ice cream will give your cocktail a fluffy texture, while thicker ice cream will give your cocktail a creamy texture. If you plan on adding candy chunks, wait a little longer to make it easier for you to mix the ingredients.
- For ice cream to acquire the required consistency, let it melt at room temperature for 10-15 minutes, or reheat in the microwave for 20 seconds.
- If you are using frozen yogurt or sorbet, you can add the aforementioned ingredients right away without waiting for them to soften.
- If you are adding fruit or candy pieces, be sure to chop or crush them into small pieces.
3 Add milk to ice cream bowl. Stick to the following proportion: Mix three parts ice cream and one part milk.
- Like ice cream, the consistency of the milk affects whether or not you make a creamy shake. If you want to make a creamy drink, use a fatty, thicker milk.
- If you are adding dry powder, mix it with milk before adding it to the bowl of ingredients. Dissolve the powder in the milk and then add the resulting mixture to a bowl. If you have a bottle with a whisk ball, use that. You can also mix the ingredients using a spoon or fork.
4 Mix all ingredients together. Depending on what consistency cocktail you want to get in the end, choose the method of mixing the ingredients. Use a spoon or potato grinder if you want to make a shake with a non-uniform consistency. If you want to make a smooth cocktail, use a whisk.
- If you have an electric mixer, mix the ingredients using this appliance.
5 Try a cocktail. Take a spoon and taste the cocktail to determine if it's done. Pay attention to its consistency.
- If your shake is too thin, add more ice cream. If too thick, add some milk and stir well again.
6 Pour the cocktail into a glass. Pour as much of the cocktail into the glass as you can drink. This allows you to enjoy its incredible taste before its consistency changes.
- If you want your milkshake to be very cold, place the glass in the freezer while you mix all the ingredients.
- Garnish with a spoonful of whipped cream if desired. You can also use a straw if you like.
- The cocktail is ready! Enjoy!

Tips

You can use chocolate milk instead of cocoa powder.
If you don't like a liquid milkshake, put it in the freezer. However, be careful not to end up with a frozen cocktail!
Don't let the ice cream melt completely. Otherwise, you will not be able to make a creamy cocktail.
Don't use hard chocolate. It should be soft enough.
You can use malt powder to make a milkshake or any other flavor-enhancing powder such as chocolate or almond.
