Ingredients
  

For the Milkshake
  • 2 cups Fresh Honeydew Melon cubed, chilled
  • 4 scoops Vanilla Ice Cream
  • 1/2 cup Milk Whole milk recommended for creaminess
  • 1 tablespoon Granulated Sugar Adjust to taste based on melon sweetness
  • 1/4 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 4-5 small Ice Cubes Optional, for extra thickness

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Ensure the honeydew melon is thoroughly chilled before starting. Cut 2 cups of honeydew into small, manageable cubes.
  2. Place the cubed honeydew melon, vanilla ice cream, milk, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract into a high-powered blender.
  3. Add 4-5 small ice cubes if you prefer a thicker consistency, or omit them if the melon is well-frozen.
  4. Blend on low speed initially, gradually increasing to high. Blend until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy, stopping to scrape down the sides once or twice if necessary.
  5. Taste the milkshake and adjust sweetness if needed, adding a touch more sugar if desired, and blend for a few more seconds.
  6. Pour the finished milkshake immediately into two chilled glasses. Serve immediately with a wide straw.

Notes

For an extra vibrant color, add a tiny drop of green food coloring if your honeydew variety is very pale. Using frozen honeydew chunks instead of fresh melon and ice cubes will result in a thicker milkshake.
