Strawberry and Banana Milkshake!

Hows it going guys!? So I actually made this milkshake yesterday, but I was soooo tired I said screw it! I'll post it tomorrow. As I was looking back at the pictures, I realize how clumsy I was taking them. So sorry about the slightly crooked images, I didn't mean for that on purpose I swear! So, I love to make milkshakes, especially when the fruit are a little bit past the best time to eat them fresh, or when you accidently forget that you have bananas, and now they're about to rot. I make this exact milkshake with different fruit, but strawberries and bananas are what I happened to have, but feel free to mix this with whatever you like! As usual, the recipe is bellow, under the pictures! =)


Well there! Here's my lovely blender filled to the brim with yummy fruits!


Right after I added the spices ;)


Almost didn't fit the ice in! :O


After it all got blended!


And ready to serveee! :)
Ingredients:

3 bananas
Handful of strawberries (*About 6 or more)
1/2 whipping cream or half and half
1 cup more or less milk
3 packets of Splenda (or regular sugar)
Teaspoon cinnamon
Pinch of Salt
Handful of ice

Directions:

The first thing I always do is get my fruit ready. For starters peel your bananas and with your hands drop them into your blender either in half or in thirds. Next you want to wash your strawberries, remove their green little leaves, and cut them in half. Don't forget to add those to your blender too! Next I add in my whipping cream to make the milkshake heavier, then my milk. Afterwards I add in the sugar (Splenda in my case), cinnamon, and the pinch of salt. Afterwards I just squish in as much ice as I can to fill my blender, normally it's just about how much I can fit in my hands. Do not start blending it all at once. Unless you have a new fancy blender, but mine is a bit of work. So I turn in on then off then on. So it blends a little each time, this way all the ice and fruits can reach the bottom and be cut up and blended evenly. Remember that YOU DO NOT have to follow the exact measurements that I listed above, because I just estimated. When I make these kind of things I just eye ball it really. Switch the milkshake from the blender to something that's easier to pour into cups with and enjoy! I hope you love yours as much as I love mine! =)
