# Expert Suggestions:

01 -
  • You get that same thick, spoonable texture without leaving your house or waiting in line
  • The peanut butter hits different when you control exactly how much goes in
  • Takes literally five minutes from start to that first brain freeze
02 -
  • Over-blending makes it melt too fast, so stop as soon as everything is smooth and combined
  • Cold glasses prevent that sad situation where your shake is watery before you are halfway through
  • Natural peanut butter separates faster in the shake, so stir and serve immediately
03 -
  • Warm your peanut butter in the microwave for 10 seconds before adding it to help it incorporate faster
  • Stick your glasses in the freezer while you blend for that professional frosty look
