How to Make Strawberry Milk Shakes
- **Make the Strawberry Syrup:** In a medium saucepan, combine 2 cups sliced strawberries, 1 cup granulated sugar, and 1 cup water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly until the sugar dissolves.
- **Simmer:** Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 10 minutes, or until the strawberries have softened and released their juices.
- **Add Lemon Juice:** Remove from heat and stir in 2 tablespoons of fresh lemon juice.
- **Strain the Syrup:** Pour the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl, pressing on the solids to extract as much syrup as possible.
- **Chill:** Cover and refrigerate the syrup for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. (Can be made 1 week ahead – keep chilled.)
- **Prepare Glasses:** Place 4 tall glasses in the freezer for at least 1 hour.
- **Blend:** In a blender, combine 1 cup of chilled strawberry syrup, 1 cup milk, and 1 pint of ice cream. Blend until completely smooth and creamy.
- **Add Remaining Ice Cream:** Add the remaining pint of ice cream and blend again until smooth.
- **Serve:** Divide the milkshake mixture evenly among the chilled glasses.
- **Garnish:** Drizzle each glass with additional strawberry syrup and top with a few sliced strawberries.
- **Enjoy:** Serve immediately with a spoon and/or straw.
