Yummy Coffee Milkshake Recipe, and a GIVEAWAY! (2024)

May 30, 2014 | Posted by Chelsey

I love a good craft party. I recently invited my friends over to paint some wood beads and make necklaces. It turned out to be such a lovely day! Crafting with friends is one of my favorite ways to spend a Sunday afternoon. For this party I bought a bunch of wood beads from Collage (a local Portland craft stop), lots of colorful acrylic paint, and bakers twine for the necklace part. I provided a ton of paintbrushes and they went to town.

It was fun! We ate some lunch and had some yummy milkshakes for dessert (just in case you’re curious, I shared the milkshake recipe below). As a thank you to my friends for coming to play, I gave them each a little goody bag. They had three Starbucks Discoveries Iced Café Favorites™ coupons, pretty nail stickers (those things are so awesome), poppy seeds, a pin from my shop, and some caramel from Rose City Sweets.

If you want to make your own coffee milkshake for the warm weather check out the recipes below. In addition to the milkshake, we also made our own whip cream. It’s not really needed, but I recommend trying it out (yum).

Coffee MilkshakeRecipemade with Starbucks® Discoveries Iced Café Favorites™

Ingredients:

• 4 scoops of vanilla ice cream
• 1/2 cup Starbucks® Discoveries Iced Café Favorites™ – Vanilla Latte
• 1 punch of salt
• Optional: Umbrella Drink Stirrers (free printable here)

Directions for Milkshake:

– Blend ingredients in a blender or stand mixer just until it’s all blended. Don’t blend for too long or the ice cream will melt.

– Optional: it does help to put the milkshake in the freezer for about five minutes before serving.

Coffee Whip Cream made with Starbucks® Discoveries Iced Café Favorites™

Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup whipping cream
• 1/4 cup Starbucks® Discoveries Iced Café Favorites™ – Caramel Macchiato
• 1 1/2 tsp milk powder (this helps stabilize the whip cream)
• 1 tiny pinch of salt
• Optional: chocolate syrup

Directions for whip cream:

– Put all the ingredients in a stand mixer.

– Blend on medium to high speed. Blend until the whip cream has stiff peaks. Your whip cream is done here, or you can keep it in the freezer for a few minutes while you make the milkshake (see next step).

– Optional: place the whip cream in a plastic bag and seal. Put the bag in the freezer for about 10 minutes. When you’re ready for the whip cream, cut the tip off one of the plastic bag corners. Squeeze the coffee whip onto the milkshake and maybe top that off with chocolate syrup!
