- Whole milk: For the best results, use 2%, whole milk but you can use Non-Dairy milk like coconut milk, almond milk, oat milk, or soy milk.
- Vanilla ice cream: If you want the taste of mango to be dominant in the milkshake, use vanilla ice cream. Ice cream helps in making thick and creamy milkshakes.

Learn More About Milkshake
The term milkshake was first heard in American cuisine in the early 1880s. A type of eggnog beverage made from eggs and milk and sugar. In the early 1900s, when it comes to milkshakes, the definition of a chilled mixture made with chocolate, strawberry, or vanilla syrup came to mind. At the same time, Americans began to look for different flavors in their milkshakes and began to consume them by putting ice cream in them. In the early 1930s, the milkshake was the most popular beverage of the popular cafes of the period called Malt Shop.
Since electric hand blenders are not that common, milkshake takes its name from the fact that it is made by shaking in jar-type shakers. Milkshake is the name of the beverage that is made with ice cream, milk, and various flavored syrups are whipped in shakers until they have a homogeneous consistency.
Tips and Tricks

- Add your choice of flavorings like saffron, cardamom powder and vanilla extract.
- Top milkshake with whipped cream, saffron threads, crushed almonds or small mango pieces.
- If you use ice cream and sweet and ripe mango to make milkshake, you don’t need to add sweetener. But if the mango is sour or tart, you can use sweeteners like maple syrup and sugar.
