Welcome to a new edition of our series ‘Gulp Fiction’ where we show you how to recreate drinks from cinema so you can slurp along with your favourite characters. We encourage you to rewatch the classics with a drink in hand and join us as we sip on cinema.
In this episode, we’re drinking up THERE WILL BE BLOOD and showcasing the most famous drink never seen on screen. The iconic line “I drink your milkshake” can be heard in pub quizzes across the nation but never have we ever clapped eyes on the metaphorical shake. This is our imagining of what Daniel Plainview would happily slurp up if he had a straw long enough.
If you haven’t watched the episode yet, go check it out, and drop us a cute little strawb in the comments 🍓
GO TO:
STRAWBERRY MILKSHAKE
Features (verbally) at 2 hours, 22 minutes of There Will Be Blood
INGREDIENTS (serves 2)
250g Strawberries
100ml Whole milk
1 tsp Vanilla extract
TO SERVE
Whipped cream
2 tsp Strawberry powder or 4 freeze dried strawberries
METHOD
Wash the strawberries throughly, and reserve two whole fruits for garnish. Remove the tops and quarter the remaining strawberries.
Add to a blender with the vanilla ice cream. nb: Get the best ice cream you can as it has a big impact on the flavour of your shake!
To the blender, add the milk and the vanilla.
Blitz until smooth and serve immediately in tall glasses.
For garnish, top the shake with whipped cream. Dust with a teaspoon of strawberry powder or freeze dried strawberries ground in a pestle and mortar.
Add a whole strawberry for a final flourish and serve with a straw.
Tip: If your strawberries are out of season or lacking flavour, add a tsp or two of strawberry powder before blending. This will enhance the flavour and the colour of your shake.
