C. 1 oz white chocolate, 3 oz raspberry, fill to the 8 oz with ice cream mix
D. 2 oz white chocolate, 2 oz raspberry, fill to the 6 oz with ice cream mix

Answer :

Final answer:

1 oz white chocolate, 1 oz raspberry, and then fill to the 8 oz mark with ice cream mix is the correct way to make a small white chocolate-raspberry milkshake, hence correct answer is B) 1 oz white chocolate, 1 oz raspberry, fill to the 8 oz with ice cream mix.

Explanation:

In a standard milkshake, typically the flavorings are added to taste, but an overly strong flavor can overpower the creamy texture of the ice cream.

Given that the provided options are standardized, we would look for a balanced flavor profile. Too much flavoring can overwhelm the taste, while too little may not be enough. Therefore, option (b) 1 oz white chocolate, 1 oz raspberry, fill to the 8 oz with ice cream mix seems like a sensible choice, since it provides equal amounts of white chocolate and raspberry without going overboard, guaranteeing both the flavors are represented well in the shake.

Ice cream based desserts often rely on a delicate balance of flavors, and by choosing an equal ratio of white chocolate to raspberry, the drinker can enjoy a harmonious taste. Remember, the ultimate goal is a creamy and delicious milkshake, which option (b) is likely to provide.
