Instructions
Measure Your Malt Powder
Measure out the malted milk powder and set aside. This is the key ingredient that gives the shake its signature old-fashioned malt shop flavor so do not skip or reduce it.
Blend All Ingredients
Add the vanilla ice cream, whole milk, malted milk powder, and chocolate syrup to the blender. Blend on high for 40 to 50 seconds until completely smooth. The malt powder needs adequate blending time to fully dissolve.
Serve Retro Style
Pour into tall frosted glasses leaving a small amount in the blender to top up after the first pour. Add whipped cream, a maraschino cherry, and serve with a paper straw for a true diner aesthetic.
