FAQ

Q1: Can I make this milkshake dairy-free?

A: Yes! You can substitute the vanilla ice cream with a dairy-free ice cream and use plant-based milk (like almond, coconut, or oat milk) to make it dairy-free.

Q2: What if I don’t have peppermint extract?

A: If you don’t have peppermint extract, you can use mint extract instead, or you can omit it altogether for a chocolate milkshake without the mint flavor.

Q3: How can I adjust the sweetness?

A: If you prefer a less sweet milkshake, you can reduce the amount of chocolate syrup. Alternatively, add a little sugar or a sugar substitute if you want to control the sweetness.

Q4: Can I use fresh mint instead of extract?

A: Yes! You can blend a few fresh mint leaves into the milkshake for a natural mint flavor. Just be aware that it may change the color slightly.

A: You can add Halloween-themed sprinkles, edible glitter, or even Halloween-themed straws and decorations to make it more festive!

Q6: Can I prepare this milkshake in advance?

A: While it’s best enjoyed fresh, you can blend the ingredients (without the whipped cream and decorations) and store it in the freezer. Just give it a good stir before serving.

Q7: What can I use as a substitute for chocolate syrup?

A: You can use homemade chocolate sauce or melted chocolate. Adjust the amount to suit your taste.

Q8: How should I store leftovers?
