Source: Knox Gelatin
Makes 4 servings

A healthy after-school treat that older children can prepare themselves. No high-fat ice cream is needed to produce these quick and creamy milkshakes.

1 pouch Knox® Unflavored Gelatin
1-2/3 cups (400 mL) cold milk, divided
1-2/3 cups (400 mL) frozen unsweetened strawberries
2 tbsp (30 mL) honey to taste
1 tsp (5 mL) vanilla

Sprinkle gelatin over 1/4 cup (50 mL) of the cold milk in a small saucepan; let stand 1 minute. Stir over low heat until gelatin is completely dissolved, about 5 minutes.
Remove from heat.
