Spiced Baked Good Milkshakes

The Smashburger Gingerbread Holiday Shake is Here for the Season

— November 25, 2020 — Lifestyle
The Smashburger Gingerbread Holiday Shake is a new milkshake from the brand that is focused on providing festive consumers with an alternative way to enjoy the flavors of the season. The milkshake is achieved with a base of creamy Häagen Dazs vanilla ice cream that has been blended with real pieces of gingerbread cookies. This positions the milkshake as being a high-quality treat for consumers to pick up when craving ice cream, but who are in search of a more seasonal flavor to enjoy.

The Smashburger Gingerbread Holiday Shake is being launched only for the holidays and is available now at participating locations nationwide, but only through December 31, 2020. The treat has a suggested price point of $5.99, which could vary depending on the location.
