Strawberry Shake- Medium Syrup

This milkshake is creamy, smooth, and extra thick. Just when you think you’re drinking a plain old strawberry milkshake, the basil shines through and tantalizes your taste buds with its earthy, anise flavor.The strawberry sorbet creates an intense strawberry flavor in this milkshake. Thanks to Adam, I will always use sorbet in combination with ice cream in my milkshakes. It really takes the flavor to another level.Place 1/4 cup of chilled basil syrup, the milk, ice cream, and sorbet in a blender and pulse several times to break up the ice cream. With the motor off, use a wooden spoon or spatula to mash the mixture down into the blender blades. Continue pulsing until the mixture is smooth. Add more milk if the mixture is too thick. Pour shake into 2 glasses and enjoy.
