Storage

If you have leftover shake, here are some handy storage tips to ensure your milkshake stays frosty and delightful.

IN THE FRIDGE: This recipe won’t keep in the fridge as the ice cream will melt, and you won’t have the creamy consistency that makes this drink amazing.

IN THE FREEZER: Milkshakes, once blended, are meant to be enjoyed immediately.

You can place the blended mint chocolate milkshake back in the freezer, but it will lose some of the taste and appeal.
