Instructions

Add whole milk, vanilla ice cream, and pure vanilla extract to a blender.
Add frozen strawberries and sifted matcha powder to the blender to avoid clumps.
Blend on low speed for 10 seconds, then on medium-high for 20-30 seconds until thick and smooth. Avoid overblending.
Check consistency. Add 1 tablespoon milk at a time if too thick, or 1/4 cup more ice cream if too thin.
Pour into a chilled 16-ounce glass and top with whipped cream.
Serve immediately with a wide straw and long spoon.

Tips

Sift the matcha powder before adding to prevent lumps. For a thinner shake, add milk gradually until desired consistency is reached.
