Freakshakes are basically milkshakes on steroids! These insane mega milkshakes are for special occasions only or perhaps best shared…
Which is why I think Halloween is the perfect occasion to enjoy a freakshake – after all indulgence is the name of the game!
I have given my freakshake grown up delicious twist by adding my favorite creamy liqueur… Baileys! You can leave this out if serving to minors 😉
Here’s What you Will Need
For a Halloween Freakshake use store bought or homemade mini donuts, cookies, lollipops and marshmallows or customize this indulgent drink however you like!
YYou can call this a Pumpkin Spice Freakshake and drink it to celebrate Fall of course…
Serve in a Skull Glass Mason Jars decorated with edible fake blood for extra Halloween spookiness…
- Vanilla ice cream or coffee ice cream
- Pumpkin spice (optional)
- Baileys Original or any of their special editions such as Baileys Luxe Chocolate or Baileys Apple Pie Irish Cream Liqueur
- Milk, as needed, to achieve desired consistency
- Whipping cream from a can
- Chocolate or caramel sauce to drizzle
- Mini donuts, cupcakes, lollies, marshmallows, sprinkles to decorate
HOW TO MAKE A BAILEYS FREAKSHAKE
Full measurements and instructions can be found on the printable recipe card at the bottom of the page. Please take a look at the steps and video before attempting this recipe!
Place your glass or jam jar in the freezer for 30 minutes.
Prepare your toppings: thread donuts, small cupcakes, marshmallows and any Halloween themed candy onto long skewers or thread through straws.
Put the ice cream, pumpkin spice, Baileys Irish Cream and a splash of milk in a blender. Pulse to combine, adding more milk as needed to achieve desired consistency.
Pour into the chilled glass, filling only three quarters of the way up (otherwise it will spill over the minute you add the toppings).
