    7. Spearmint Syrup

  7. Adjust the quantities  according to the amount of prepared mint leaves you have to work with. Cut back on the cooking times in the recipe as needed.

    Strip the mint leaves from stalks, discarding any that are blemished or discoloured. Pack into standard 250 mL cup. Wash very well to remove any sand or debris and drain.

    1) Put washed leaves into the Thermomix bowl and add your calculated amounts of water and sugar.

    2) Cook for 18  MINUTES at 100 C on REVERSE and SPEED 2. Allow to steep for approx 1 hour to fully infuse.

    3) Strain into a bowl or another saucepan, pressing on the mint leaves to fully extract flavour. Rinse TM bowl to remove the last of the mint leaves. Return strained syrup to the bowl. Add citric acid.

    4) Cook for 8 MINUTES at VAROMA TEMPERATURE on SPEED 2.

    5) Allow to cool and pour into sterilised bottles and store refrigerated. The syrup will be a light straw colour, but packed with flavour!

    The mint syrup is yummy and would have many many potential uses - yummy with icecream!Be creative now it's the New Year!

Tip

The recipes above are a guide.We all like to adapt and modify recipes, so go ahead and enjoy the creative journey!.Halving the quantities of ingredients works well for all recipes and may be sufficient quantity for 2 serves.

The secret to this milkshake method is whipping the milk using the butterfly for an extended period at low speed - not using the blades at high speed.

TYPE OF MILK TO USE

Having trialled the commonly available cows milk I have concluded:  Reduced fat milk produces a superior thicker milkshake than full cream milk. Milk with 1.4% fat (Green top) and 1% fat (Yellow top) are recommended.

1) The coldness of frozen milk blocks and frozen fruit that your freezer produces might affect the result, so take note of the mixture at the end of step 3. Make notes of adjustments to the recipe amounts of "cold" and "frozen" for next time!
2) Adjust the amount and type of sugar or sweetener as desired. Quantities of ingredients in the recipes are a guide!
3) Substitute other frozen fruit pieces in place of the stawberries
4) Fresh strawberries may be substituted in place of frozen - just increase the amount of frozen millk blocks and decrease the amount of cold milk in proportion.
5) Flavoured topping could be used but you will need to fiddle the recipe and keep notes of amount/weights. Remember to keep a slight iciness of the "slurry" at end of step 3. If needed add more frozen milk blocks and repeat step 3.
6) Portion size is listed as 3 (3 x 300 mL tall glasses) but could suit 2 - 4 people. However it is very quick to make another round!
7) If you prefer an iced coffee that is not thick milkshake-style, reduce the amount of time whipping with the butterfly to perhaps 30 seconds.
tmrc_emoticons.8) I haven't experimented with adding Icecream to the ingredients, but if you want to be naughty go ahead!
9) Frozen espresso coffee blocks in the coffee milkshake work a treat!
10) Spearmint is still my favourite milkshake flavour and goes back to my adolescence. I am absolutely thrilled that I have created such a good syrup recipe. This is a combination of three recipe ideas I found after extensive searching on the internet. Spearmint as a milkshake flavour is popular in Western Australia, but based on my interstate travels not so popular in other states. Time for you guys to try it!
10) This milkshake method crosses over into smoothie territory! It is possible that using the butterfly at the end of a smoothie recipe could take it to another level!
11) The Maltesers Milkshake recipe uses Dutch-processed cocoa which has better flavour, colour and mixing attributes.
12) Malted milk powder does not work in this recipe. Liquid malt is essential and is usually available in supermarkets. Spooning out the malt from the tin is a bit of an art form that requires a twisting action and a finger or teaspoon to assist at the end! Liquid malt could be added to any of the milkshake recipes and is a lovely flavour plain on its own..
