Tips
- * Make sure to use high-quality vanilla ice cream as the base of your milkshake to ensure a creamy and smooth texture. * Adjust the amount of rum to your taste, or omit it altogether if you prefer a non-boozy version. * For an extra burst of citrus flavor, garnish with a sprinkle of lime zest on top of the whipped cream. * Experiment with different types of milk or creamers, such as almond or soy milk, to create a non-dairy version of the milkshake. * Consider serving the milkshake in hollowed-out coconut shells or tropical-themed glasses to add to the fun and festive atmosphere.
