This Pink Unicorn Freakshake is the perfect blend of creamy sweetness, a splash of rainbow color, and playful toppings that bring out your inner unicorn!

Ingredients
- Vanilla Ice Cream (3 scoops) – The creamy base of the shake; it brings that smooth, sweet flavor we all love.
- Milk (1/2 cup) – Helps thin out the shake to the perfect drinkable consistency. Add more if you prefer a thinner shake.
- Pink Food Coloring (a few drops) – Adds that signature unicorn pink color! Adjust to reach your desired shade of pink.
- Whipped Cream (as desired) – Essential for the over-the-top unicorn style! Pile it high for the best effect.
- Rainbow Marshmallows (handful) – Adds a soft, chewy texture and colorful look. Use mini marshmallows for easier blending.
- Edible Glitter or Sprinkles (a sprinkle) – Adds sparkle, making it extra magical! Unicorn-approved.
- Unicorn Horn Candy or Lollipop (1 per shake) – The finishing touch! You can find these pre-made or use any colorful lollipop.
- Colorful Gummies & Candy (handful) – For extra flair, pile on your favorite candies. They’ll add texture and color on top.
How to Make the Pink Unicorn Freakshake
Step 1:
In a blender, combine the vanilla ice cream, milk, and a few drops of pink food coloring. Blend until smooth and creamy. Adjust the milk amount if needed for your preferred thickness.
Step 2:
Prepare your glass by drizzling some pink icing or melted white chocolate on the rim, letting it drip down for a dramatic effect. Chill the glass briefly to set the drizzle.
Step 3:
Pour the milkshake mixture into the prepared glass, filling it almost to the top.
Step 4:
Top with a mountain of whipped cream, piling it high for that epic freakshake look.
Step 5:
Add your rainbow marshmallows, edible glitter, and colorful sprinkles to the whipped cream. Feel free to get creative with the decoration!
Step 6:
Finish by placing a unicorn horn candy or lollipop right into the whipped cream as the “crown” of your shake. Add any extra candies, gummies, or decorations you like.
Step 7:
Grab a fun straw, and your Pink Unicorn Freakshake is ready to enjoy!

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I make this shake dairy-free?
Yes! Use dairy-free vanilla ice cream and almond or oat milk instead of regular milk. It’ll still be super creamy and delicious.
What if I don’t have pink food coloring?
No worries! You can use strawberry ice cream for a natural pink color, or mix in a little raspberry or strawberry syrup to add both color and flavor.
Where can I find a unicorn horn candy?
Look for unicorn-themed candies at specialty stores or online. You can also substitute with a colorful lollipop or even make a DIY horn with fondant!
Can I prepare this in advance?
The shake is best made fresh to keep that creamy texture. However, you can prep the glass with the drizzle and chill it ahead of time.
Is edible glitter safe to eat?
Yes, as long as it’s marked “edible” and food-safe! It adds a fun sparkle without any harm.
How do I make it less sweet?
If you prefer a less sweet version, reduce the amount of candy toppings, or use unsweetened whipped cream.
Can I add other flavors to the milkshake?
Absolutely! Feel free to blend in some strawberry or raspberry puree for a fruity twist, or a bit of cotton candy syrup for an extra magical flavor.
