Note

For a richer, creamier texture, substitute the water with milk or half-and-half.

If you prefer a thicker consistency, add extra ice or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

This drink contains raw eggs. If you are concerned about food safety, use pasteurized eggs or omit them for a lighter juice blend.

Serve immediately to enjoy the frothy texture before it settles.
