Dairy-free and Vegan milkshakes are really easy to make in the Ninja Creami!
Once the blending cycle is complete, you can add any mix-ins like crushed cookies, fruit, or candies by using the "Mix-In" function to incorporate them evenly into your .

Best Ninja Creami Tips
- Ninja Creami’s can make smoothie bowls, ice cream, gelato, sorbet, and even milkshakes!
- Do I need to wait 24 hours for Creami? No, My frozen yogurt was ready to be blended in the Ninja Creami after 6 hours. Add image
- Never ever use frozen fruit in your ninja creami, blend it first. That is how you ruin the blade.
- Protein drinks like Fairlife and Premiere work great in a Ninja Creami. For a dairy free or lactose free option try OWYN protein shakes.
- Respin! If the blending didn’t work the first time try adding some more juice or milk to it and do a second respin.
- The Ninja Creami is kind of loud when it is spinning in the machine. Just warning you before you attempt to make ice cream. 🙂
- Mix-ins: Try adding fresh fruit, peanut butter cups, chocolate chips, Oreos, you name it!
- Run warm water around the frozen pint of ice cream to avoid icy edges.
