Ingredients
- Pistachios
- 1/2 cup, shelled and unsalted
- Vanilla ice cream
- 2 cups
- Milk
- 1 cup (whole or almond milk for a dairy-free option)
- Honey
- 2 tablespoons (or to taste)

- 1/2 cup, for topping
- Pistachio crumbs
- 2 tablespoons, for garnish
Instructions
- In a blender, combine the shelled pistachios, vanilla ice cream, milk, and honey.
- Blend on high speed until the mixture is smooth and creamy, about 30-60 seconds. If the milkshake is too thick, add a splash more milk to reach your desired consistency.

- Top each milkshake with a generous dollop of whipped cream.
- Sprinkle the whipped cream with pistachio crumbs for a beautiful presentation.
- Serve immediately with a straw or a long spoon, and enjoy the nutty, creamy goodness!
Tips

- You can substitute honey with maple syrup or agave nectar for a vegan option.
- For a fun twist, try adding a scoop of chocolate ice cream for a pistachio-chocolate combo.
