How to Draw a Milkshake

In this lesson, we will start with a blank piece of paper and discover how to draw a milkshake in 9 instructive steps. It’s best if we pay attention to the shape and size of each of the drawn parts of the milkshake.

Time Needed: 20 minutes

1. Outline The Tall Glass

   

   First, draw a U-shape to outline the tall glass.

2. Add The Texture

   

   Add the texture of the tall glass by creating four vertical lines.

3. Attach The Base

   

   Attach the base of the tall glass by drawing the shape similar to the illustration.

4. Outline The Milkshake

   

   Draw a bumpy inverted V-shaped line as shown to outline the milkshake.

5. Form The Milkshake’s Shape

   

   Create three wavy lines to form the shape of the milkshake.

6. Add The Straw

   

   Add the straw by drawing an inverted U-shaped line on the right side of the milkshake.

7. Draw The Straw’s Opening

   

   Draw the straw’s opening by creating a curved line connecting the corners of the straw.

8. Create The Pattern

   

   Create the pattern on the straw by drawing diagonal lines as shown.

9. Complete The Milkshake Drawing

   

   Let’s complete the milkshake illustration by coloring the tall glass with a mix of blue and purple crayons. Next, use a brown crayon to color the milkshake. Then, use white and red crayons alternatingly to color the straw. To add a bit of dimension to our drawing, use a purple crayon to shade the sides and opening of the straw.
