This Kahlua chocolate milkshake is made with my homemade chocolate mix. It's rich, chocolaty, and has the thickness of pouring custard. And, of course, Kahlua, which makes everything better.

Have you tried my homemade cocoa mix yet? You must! It's the absolute best you will ever make. I never buy cocoa mix anymore. Not just because homemade is better, but my cocoa mix really makes a thick and indulgent chocolate drink. Whether you want it hot or cold - for summer or winter.
The only disadvantage of this drink is that you have to plan ahead. I make a hot chocolate drink, place it in the fridge for a couple of hours for it to cool. Then, I add the Kahlua!
- I have tried to just add the chocolate powder to the cold milk. It works, and it makes a delicious chocolate milkshake, but not as thick as when you cook the hot chocolate.
- And, I've even added lots of ice cream to make it thicker - works great, but I still prefer this thick milkshake that's not loaded with ice cream.
I made a big milk bottle of hot chocolate and let it cool completely in the fridge. Usually overnight.
Ingredients and substitutes
- Hot chocolate mix - You can use a store-bought hot chocolate mix but if you make my recipe with real chocolate you will never buy store-bought again.
- Milk - I use dairy 3% milk. And yet, almond, coconut, or soy milks would also be delicious.
- Liquor - Today, I'm using Kahlua but Bailey's works just as well. See how to make homemade baileys in less than 10 minutes.
- Ice cream - You can use vanilla or chocolate. In fact, try some Belgian dark chocolate ice cream.
Step by step instructions
- In a heavy-bottom saucepan, over medium heat, bring the milk to almost boil.
- Add the hot chocolate mix.
- Using a whisk, stir until the mixture dissolves and slightly thickens (don't over thicken - it should still be pouring consistency).
- If necessary, add milk to bring to consistency.
- Pour into a measuring cup or bowl, let cool at room temperature. Then, chill for 4 hours or more.
- Pour into a blender and add the liquor.
- Top with a scoop of ice cream.
- Garnish with a strawberry or shaved chocolate.
