Ingredients

- Blue raspberry popping candy, for rimming
- Red cherry popping candy, for rimming
- 1 cup blue cotton candy, plus additional for topping

- 2 pink and blue swirl lollipops

Instructions
Prepare the Glass Rims
Begin by placing store-bought vanilla frosting on a plate. Pour the blue and red popping candy into a shallow dish. Take 2 glasses and dip their rims into the frosting first, then immediately dip them into the mixed popping candy. This creates a sweet, textured rim. Set the prepared glasses to the side.
Make the Blue Cotton Candy Shake
Pour the blue cotton candy into your blender along with 1 pint of vanilla ice cream, 1/4 cup of chilled whole milk, and 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Blend everything together until the mixture reaches a smooth consistency. Once blended, transfer this blue shake into a pitcher. Rinse out the blender thoroughly before proceeding to the next step.
Make the Pink Cotton Candy Shake
Follow the same process with the pink cotton candy, combining it with the remaining 1 pint of vanilla ice cream, 1/4 cup of cold milk, and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Blend until smooth and set aside.
Assemble the Milkshakes
Pour both colored shakes into each prepared glass simultaneously, aiming to fill each glass with half pink and half blue layers for a visually striking presentation. Top each milkshake generously with blue and pink cotton candy pieces. Add a pink and blue swirl lollipop and a pink rock candy lollipop to each glass for decoration and extra sweetness. Insert straws into each shake and serve right away for the best flavor and texture.
