This delicious Wake ‘n Bake Milkshake is the cannabis milkshake recipe that you never knew you needed. With the bold taste of coffee and the sweetness of java chip ice cream, you’ll get a caffeine boost with a cannabis twist. The best part is it takes less than 10 minutes!  

There’s no better way to wake and bake with cannabis than with an infused milkshake. Coffee, ice cream, and cannabis – no better combination, right?

This buzzy milkshake recipe is perfect for an indulgent pick-me-up, Valentine’s Day, date night, and so much more. (We also won’t judge you if you dip your french fries in this baby.)

We enjoy the strong coffee flavor that comes from using Cloud Creamery’s Java Chip ice cream. Their ice cream is made with cold-steeped, medium roast coffee ice cream and housemade chocolate chips, so you know this is about to be good.

Our team at Hennep enjoys all of Cloud Creamery’s delicious flavors because their incredible flavors are infused with fast-acting, full spectrum cannabis extracts.

They’re also constantly innovating their flavors with vegan ice creams –such as Strawberry Shortcake, Caramel Apple Crumble, and Pina Colada– as well as new flavor combinations, like S’mores, Orange Whip, and more.

Although the Java Chip flavor is made with dairy, it is extremely simple to turn this cannabis milkshake into a vegan one!

If you want a vegan or non-dairy version of this recipe, you can choose to use a cannabis tincture and a non-dairy milk and ice cream brand of your choice. However, Cloud Creamery does have dairy-free sorbets (lemon and mango) that you can use in other cannabis drink recipes, such as a sorbet punch.

The addition of the milk helps thin out the shake, making it easier to drink! If you prefer a thicker milkshake, feel free to omit the milk entirely.

The cold brew is essential in this recipe! If you don’t have any on hand, you can brew some hot coffee, but be sure to let it cool off before using it or else your ice cream will melt and completely change the texture of your cannabis milkshake.

We recommend measuring the amount you need (¼ cup) and placing it in the freeze for 10 to 20 minutes to chill the coffee before making your shake.

Lastly, no milkshake is complete without a bit of a garnish. If you want to opt for a fancier, more indulgent shake, go ahead and drizzle some chocolate sauce in your glass. You can also top the milkshake with some whipped cream and mini chocolate chips or Oreo crumble to go the extra mile!
