Strawberry Shake

What is it?

Soft serve blended with strawberry syrup, this thick pink shake leans on dairy and sweetness rather than fruit. It’s served cold, smooth, and spoonable, with a light cream topping in some stores. The flavour is more strawberry lolly than fresh berry, which sets it apart from McDonald's vanilla and chocolate shakes, both built on the same soft serve base. In Australia, it’s usually sold as a takeaway drink and comes in the standard McDonald’s shake cup, with a consistency that sits somewhere between a beverage and a dessert.
