White vinegar might seem like an odd ingredient, but it is actually a traditional component of Red Velvet that imparts the subtle tanginess you expect from the authentic treat. Adding a layer of cream cheese glaze on top is well worth those extra two minutes—it makes the whole creation look stunning and enhances the cheesecake flavour.

Instructions

1. Chill your glass — Place your serving glass in the freezer for 5–10 minutes. For an even more impressive presentation, rim the glass with crushed graham crackers dipped in a little cream cheese glaze.

2. Soften the cream cheese — Ensure the cream cheese is at room temperature so that it blends easily without leaving any lumps. Blend — First, pour the milk into the blender, followed by the cream cheese, powdered sugar, cocoa powder, vanilla extract, white vinegar, salt, and food coloring. Add the ice cream last.

3. Mix — Blend on medium speed for 30–45 seconds, or until the mixture is completely smooth and has taken on a deep red color throughout.

4. Check Consistency — Add more ice cream to thicken the shake, or add a splash of milk to thin it out. The cream cheese will naturally make the shake thick and rich.

5. Serve — Pour into a chilled glass, then top with whipped cream, a layer of cream cheese glaze, and a sprinkle of crushed Red Velvet cake or cookie pieces. Serve immediately.

Tips

Red Velvet ice cream (available at many grocery stores and Baskin-Robbins) intensifies both the color and the flavor—if you can find it, be sure to use it!

White vinegar may seem like a minor ingredient, but it is essential—it provides that subtle tanginess characteristic of Red Velvet and balances the sweetness of the shake.

To achieve a more vibrant red color without diluting the shake, use gel food coloring instead of liquid food coloring.

For an even richer, cheesecake-like flavor, use Philadelphia Cheesecake-flavored cream cheese spread instead of plain cream cheese.

To add a "Cookies-and-Cream" twist to the Red Velvet flavor, mix in 2–3 crushed Oreo cookies.

To create a non-dairy version, use dairy-free cream cheese and ice cream made with coconut milk.
