Tips to make perfect strawberry banana milkshake

To make the perfect, delicious milkshake with strawberries and bananas:

Make sure to use good quality strawberries and bananas.

If the strawberries are too tart, they may not be suitable for milkshakes.

The right kind of strawberries to make milkshakes are ripe, sweet and slightly tart in flavor. Also make sure they are fresh berries.

With bananas, it is important to use ripe bananas, but make sure not to use overripe bananas to make milkshakes.

The perfect bananas to make milkshakes have bright yellow peels with brown spots beginning to appear. They are ripe and soft, but not mushy in texture.

You may also freeze the sliced bananas and strawberries in advance for a more thicker texture for the milkshake if you wish, but this is not necessary.

Using whole milk to make the milkshake will give you the most delicious, creamy and rich milkshake that tastes the best, but it is okay to use low fat milk if you wish to reduce the calories.

I do not always use whole milk to make milkshakes, for the same reason and they are still fine!

So here is how you can make this delicious homemade milkshake using bananas and strawberries.
