# Tips from dashanddishes:
01 -
- Ready in five minutes flat, which means instant gratification for everyone
- Tastes even better than the drive through version and you control exactly what goes in
02 -
- Peppermint extract strength varies wildly between brands, so always taste as you go
- These separate quickly if left sitting, so serve immediately after pouring
03 -
- Let your ice cream soften on the counter for five minutes before blending to prevent straining your motor
- Rinse the blender immediately with warm water to prevent that sticky film from forming
