In honor of Vanilla Milkshake Day, which is celebrated annually on June 20, a restaurant in England constructed this luxurious vanilla shake that costs $80. The ‘Grill n Shake’ is a family-owned restaurant that normally offers delicious shakes for less than $4, however, to celebrate Vanilla Milkshake Day, the restaurant decided to offer this extravagant milkshake for one day only.
The ingredients for this beautiful shake are vanilla ice cream made from vanilla pods and Jersey milk and saffron. It is then topped with an edible 23 carat gold leaf, Italian black truffle shavings and lavish Amedei chocolate.
It was an honorable tribute to a tradition treat that was executed with a glamorous presentation. This lavish dairy delight is the perfect way to shake up the menu while paying tribute to a delicious dessert.
