The Shake Shack True Love Shake has been added to the brand's winter shake menu as a Valentine's Day-ready treat perfect for couples, friends and individuals alike to try out.
The menu item starts off with the brand's signature vanilla frozen custard that's blended with strawberry puree before being poured into a dark chocolate shell-lined cup that can be cracked for a textural touch. The shake is finished with whipped cream and strawberry curls, and is being launched with a special promotion for customers to take advantage of. This includes 50% off on Red Tuesday (February 10) alongside a buy-one-get-one free promotion on Valentine's Day proper. These deals can be accessed via the brand's app, website or in-store kiosk using the SELFLOVE code on Red Tuesday and SHARELOVE on Valentine's Day.
