It is worthwhile to dwell in more detail on why milkshakes are useful. First, milk contains calcium, which is good for teeth and bones.

Based on the classic milkshake, you can prepare a milkshake in a blender in huge variations. For example, due to the availability of such an exotic fruit as bananas, you can prepare a healthy, tasty and fairly high-calorie banana smoothie. So, let's start: you need to peel a banana, chop it in a blender, add milk and ice cream. Whip it with a mixer. Bananas increase efficiency, contain potassium and magnesium, so necessary for the heart. Instead of a banana, you can add any other fruit or berry. If you add a little cognac and cinnamon to a banana cocktail, then it can be used at night as sleeping pills.
If instead of fruit, a milkshake is prepared with juice, then it can be consumed for breakfast. Such a cocktail is rich in vitamins, proteins and does not contain excess calories.
In winter, a milkshake in a blender with citrus fruit juice (lemon, orange, grapefruit) is useful, since it has a lot of vitamin C. A peach cocktail is rich in B vitamins.
