Notes
For best results, chill all ingredients before blending. To make a non-alcoholic version, substitute the red wine with red grape juice or cranberry juice. Experiment with different toppings like crushed Oreos or gummy worms. If making ahead, blend the milkshake base and store in the freezer, thawing slightly before serving. Drink responsibly.
