What is Milkshake

Milkshake is a cold beverage which is made from milk, ice cream or iced milk and also it got flavourings or sweeteners like fruit syrup or chocolate sauce. Milkshakes usually served in tall glasses with straw and whipped cream can be added as a topping. There are several popular milkshake flavours like vanilla, chocolate and strawberry. In the United States, milkshakes are made without ice-cream. If there are milkshake made with ice-cream it’s commonly called a frappe. Full-service restaurants usually prepare and mix the shake by hand from scoops of ice-cream and milk in a blender or drink mixer using a stainless steel cup. Most fast food outlets do not make shakes by hand with ice-cream. Instead they make shakes in an automatic milkshake machines which freeze and serve a premade milkshake mixture consisting of milk, sweetened flavouring agent and thickening agent.
Hand-blended milkshakes can be made from any flavour of ice-cream and can add flavourings like chocolate syrup and malt can be added prior to mixing. This allows greater variety compare to the variety that available in milkshakes machine. A milkshake-like recipes which use yogurt, crushed ice and fresh fruit which all are made without ice-cream usually called smoothies. When malted milk is added, a milkshake will be called a malted milkshake or malt.
The restaurant has the highest volume of customer that is coming so they often use pre-made milkshake mixtures that are prepared in automatic milkshake machines. The machines are stainless steel cylinder with beaters that use refrigeration coils to freeze pre-made milkshake mixture into a drinkable texture. The number of different flavours that a restaurant with automatic milkshake machines can serve is limited by the number of different tanks in their milkshake machines and usually fast food restaurant only offer several type of flavour for the milkshakes.
