Who is excited about Halloween?
We sure are! I have another festive Halloween recipe for you today and it couldn’t be easier to make!
I thought it would be fun to celebrate the release of Raina Telgemeier’s new book ghost With sweet and spooky frozen treats.
Telgemeier is #1 New York Times Bestseller, multiple Eisner Award-winning author Smile, drama and sisters. She created a touching and profound story about the power of family and friendship and how it gives us the courage to do things we never thought possible. ghost is a whimsical graphic novel full of Mexican culture and traditions. This is a powerful book for young readers, perfect for this time of year!
I love that this book takes place in a city called BahĂa de la Luna, because Luna is our last name. This is where ghosts live, so I thought it would be great to make some delicious ghost milkshakes to celebrate the release of this new book, and so the Boo-nilla milkshake was born!

notes. If you want to get more creative, you can dip the rim of the glass in lemon juice or water and sprinkle it on, it looks extra cute 🙂
Tips + Variations
If you’re craving cute milkshakes in glass jars, but you’re worried about only making one snack with a permanent marker, don’t worry!My favorite method is to use the white magic eraser, but here are some other methods I’ve come across that you can try Delete markers:
- Alcohol-based hand sanitizer
- rubbing alcohol
- WD-40
- Acetone nail polish remover
- Make a paste with toothpaste and baking soda
We love the easy way a classic vanilla milkshake is paired with the spooky concept, but you can Easily change the content to your taste:
- use Crushed Oreos dip the top of the jar in
- mix in one banana or other hospitality
- add 1-2 tablespoons malt powder before mixing
- use one Different flavors of white ice cream such as birthday cake or cookies and cream
It’s super easy to make a smoothie the texture you want. For a thicker shake, reduce the amount of milk. For a thinner texture, increase the amount of milk.
