What You'll Need to Make a Strawberry Oreo Milkshake
Key Ingredients:
- Oreo Cookies: I used the regular Oreo cookies. For ingredients substitutions, please refer to the Recipe Variations section.
- Strawberry ice cream: I used Kemps Premium Ice Cream – Summer Strawberry. You can use any strawberry-flavored ice cream you prefer.
- Strawberries: I used a mixture of fresh and frozen strawberries. Frozen strawberries will add thickness to the milkshake. If you are using all frozen strawberries, add more half-and-half or milk if needed.
- Half-and-half: I used half-and-half for this milkshake recipe. This will also add thickness to the milkshake.
- Garnishes: Feel free to experiment with garnishes. I used homemade whipped cream, fresh strawberries, dark chocolate pieces, and a crushed Oreo cookie.

- Use different flavor ice cream: If you don't have strawberry ice cream on hand or want to use different flavors, feel free to use chocolate ice cream or vanilla.

Frequently Asked Questions
What type of milk is used in milkshake?
You can use any milk you prefer. If you prefer a thicker milkshake, I suggest using half-and-half or even heavy whipping cream. If you like a thinner milkshake, feel free to use the regular milk or even 2% milk.
Do I need ice for a milkshake?
No, I would not add ice to a milkshake. This will water down the milkshake, and it will change the texture.
How do you make a thick milkshake?
Add less liquid, or use half-and-half or heavy whipping cream for a thick milkshake. Also, you can add more ice cream.
