Ingredients
  

For the Milkshake
  • 3 scoops Vanilla Ice Cream Provides a creamy base and sweetness; swap for lemon sorbet for a lighter taste.

  • 1/4 cup Freshly Squeezed Lemon Juice Infuses a tangy flavor; always opt for freshly squeezed juice for the best taste.
  • 1 tablespoon Lemon Zest Enhances the zesty lemon flavor; use a microplane to finely zest, avoiding any bitter pith.
