Take a 20 ounce cup and insert a medium cup protector ring into the top. Cup protector rings are featured in the Southern Snow Product Catalog. Fill the cup with shaved snow ball ice above the top of the cup protector ring. Poke a hole through the center of the snow with a straw and then remove the straw. Pour (4) four ounces of any flavor syrup down the straw hole and around the snow top. Pour (4) ounces of any brand evaporated milk down the straw hole and around the snow top. The liquids will sink the snow below the top of the cup protector ring. Press the hand blender into the top of the snow. Turn the hand blender on and press the blender to the bottom of the cup and pull to the top of the cup twice. The movement of the blender from top to bottom twice will pull all snow and liquid through the blade thus making a thick 16 ounce or more shake served in a 20 ounce cup with a jumbo straw. Do not use regular milk. Evaporated milk will give the richness necessary for a snow shake.
HAND BLENDER ADVANTAGES:
Other style blenders may require a critical measurement of snow and liquid to avoid the extremes of a dry shake that will not mix or an easily mixed watery shake. The movement of the mixer from top to bottom eliminates this problem.
There is no need to pour the thick shake from the blender to a cup. This eliminates product loss and unnecessary cleaning. The dome-shaped blade guard prevents any damage to the cup.
Hand blenders can be purchased at Wal-Mart or K-Mart.
