Laid in the Shade

by —

Blue Bell Ice Cream’s Homemade in the Shade is a treat, for those who’ve never had it. It’s simply homemade vanilla ice cream and a fudge swirl. It also makes a great frozen drink with a little bit of effort.

  • Place 4, 5, oh hell, make it 6 scoops of the ice cream into a blender.
  • Add a cup, at the most, of milk and a handful of ice.
  • Blend till it’s a pretty even mix of yumminess.
  • Now add a couple of shots (each) of whisky, rum, and cognac.
  • Blend, adding extra ice cream or ice as needed.

That’s it! Enjoy.
