01 -

Its literally dessert in a glass but somehow counts as a beverage
The cream cheese gives it that actual cheesecake flavor instead of just tasting like strawberry ice cream

02 -

Softened cream cheese blends much better than cold, so set it out while you gather ingredients
Frozen strawberries make a thicker, colder shake but fresh ones give better flavor

03 -

Chill your glasses in the freezer for 10 minutes before serving
Blend on high power for at least 30 seconds to break up all the cream cheese lumps
