What do you do after adding shakebase to a shake?

After adding shakebase to a shake, the correct step is to mix the ingredients thoroughly. This is essential because fully integrating the shakebase ensures that the flavors and textures are evenly distributed throughout the shake, creating a consistent and enjoyable product. Skipping this step can lead to an uneven taste and texture, where certain areas may taste stronger or weaker than others.

While putting on the lid is a common practice to prevent spillage, it does not enhance the quality of the shake itself. Topping with whipped cream and filling with ice are also steps that generally occur later in the shake-making process. Mixing the shakebase thoroughly is fundamental to achieving the desired consistency and flavor before proceeding to finalize the shake with other elements.
