Tips:
- For a Tangy Twist: Add a squeeze of lemon juice to the milkshake mixture to balance the sweetness and give it a cheesecake-like tang.
- Make It Alcoholic: For an adult version, add a splash of raspberry liqueur or cream liqueur like Baileys for a richer flavor.
- Substitute Fruit: You can substitute fresh raspberries with other berries like strawberries, blackberries, or blueberries for a different take on the freakshake.
