Mexican Chocolate Shake with Chipotle and Almond
- 1/2 cup cold whole or lowfat milk (about 4 ounces/125 milliliters)
- 1/4 teaspoon almond extract
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/8 teaspoon chipotle powder or cayenne pepper, or more to taste
- 4 medium scoops vanilla bean or original vanilla ice cream (about 1 pint/12 ounces/340 grams), softened until just melty at the edges
- 4 medium scoops chocolate sorbet (about 1 pint/12 ounces/340 grams), softened until just melty at the edges.
- Place the milk, almond extract, cinnamon, and chipotle in a blender and blend to mix thoroughly, about 15 seconds.
- Add the ice cream and sorbet and pulse several times to begin breaking them up.
- With the blender motor off, use a flexible spatula to mash the mixture down onto the blender blades.
- Continue pulsing, stopping, and mashing until the mixture is well blended, thick, and moves easily in the blender jar, roughly 30 to 90 seconds.
- Pour into a chilled glass or glasses, and serve at once.
