First, before you dive headfirst into mixing, gather all your ingredients. It makes the whole process smoother. You don’t want to be halfway through, running around looking for chocolate syrup!

Next, scoop out the vanilla, chocolate, and strawberry ice creams. Having them slightly softened will make blending easier, so let them sit at room temperature for about five to ten minutes before you start.

Now comes the fun part. In a large blender, add the whole milk. Layer in the three types of ice cream. This is where you might want to channel your inner artist, making lovely stripes of color and flavor. Once they’re all in, add the vanilla extract and chocolate syrup.

Put the lid on and blend everything on high speed until it’s nice and smooth. You’ll want to stop and scrape down the sides of the blender as needed. This ensures every drop of ice cream is well incorporated.

After blending, pour your Neapolitan shake into tall glasses. Top each shake with a generous dollop of whipped cream. Drizzle a bit more chocolate syrup on top for good measure, and if you’re feeling adventurous, throw on a cherry!
