directions

  • To make the strawberry syrup: Bring syrup ingredients (strawberries - salt) to a boil in a saucepan over medium high heat, stirring until sugar dissolves. Boil uncovered 10 minutes on low, stirring occasionally. Add the lemon juice. Strain, pressing down on the solids.
  • Cover and chill for at least one hour or up to one week.
  • Place 2 (12 - ounce) glasses in the freezer for one hour. (The original recipe made 4 glasses but used 2 pints of ice cream).
  • To make the milk shakes: place 1 cup strawberry syrup, 1 cup milk, and 1 cup ice cream in a blender and puree until smooth. (For four glasses just use 1 pint of ice cream.) Add second cup of ice cream (or for 4 glasses use 2 cups of ice cream) and puree until almost smooth.
  • Pour into frozen glasses. Drizzle with additional strawberry syrup if desired and garnish with strawberries if desired.

  1. AWESOME! I made half this recipe for ME as my guilty little secret treat. I had fresh local strawberries so it was extra special.
     
  2. These are soooooo good! They have just the right consistancy for a milk shake. They have a very good strawberry flavor and are sweet and rich! Thanks for a keeper!

<p>I love cooking and trying different foods, but my favorite cookbooks are now Weight Watchers or low fat/low cal cookbooks as I tend to try and make low fat/low cal recipes. I lost over 90 pounds on Weight Watchers and have maintained for over a year now -- so my cooking/eating habits have changed drastically following my weight loss and to keep it off!</p>
