Ingredients
  

2 cups vanilla ice cream

1 cup whole milk

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

½ cup whipped cream

1 cup strawberry syrup

½ cup crushed pop rocks candy

½ cup mini marshmallows

½ cup gummy candies (e.g., gummies, sour worms)

1 cup strawberry-flavored cereal (optional)

Sprinkles for garnish

Instructions
 

Prepare the Glasses: Begin by drizzling strawberry syrup inside your serving glasses. Swirl it up the sides for a beautiful effect.

    Blend the Shake: In a blender, combine the vanilla ice cream, whole milk, and vanilla extract. Blend until smooth and creamy.

      Add Color: Gradually blend in a couple tablespoons of strawberry syrup to give the shake its delightful pink color.

        Crush Some Candy: In a ziplock bag, place the pop rocks and crush them gently with a rolling pin or your hands for a burst of texture.

          Build the Shake: Pour the pink shake mixture into the prepared glasses, filling them about three-quarters full.

            Top it Off: Generously pipe whipped cream on top of the shake. Sprinkle the crushed pop rocks over the whipped cream to create a fun popping effect!

              Candy Time: Add a handful of mini marshmallows, gummy candies, and a sprinkle of strawberry-flavored cereal on top of the whipped cream.

                Final Touch: Finish off with a delightful drizzle of more strawberry syrup and a sprinkle of colorful sprinkles for extra fun.

                  Serve Immediately: Serve with a colorful straw and enjoy the decadence of your creation!
