Ingredients

Scale

Shake Ingredients

  • 2 cups vanilla soft serve ice cream
  • 3 tbsp Grimace shake syrup
  • Purple food coloring (optional, for authentic color)
  • Whipped cream (optional, for topping)


Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a blender, add 2 cups of vanilla soft serve ice cream and 3 tablespoons of Grimace shake syrup.
  2. Blend Smooth: Blend the mixture until the shake is smooth and creamy. If you want the classic Grimace purple color, add a drop or two of purple food coloring and blend briefly to mix.
  3. Pour and Serve: Pour the shake into a glass carefully to avoid spillage.
  4. Top and Enjoy: Optionally, top the shake with whipped cream for extra indulgence. Serve immediately to enjoy the best texture and flavor.

Notes

  • You can substitute soft serve ice cream with regular vanilla ice cream and a splash of milk if soft serve is unavailable.
  • Adjust the syrup quantity for desired sweetness and flavor intensity.
  • Use food-safe purple coloring sparingly to achieve the signature Grimace shade without affecting taste.
  • Best served immediately as the shake tends to melt quickly.
