Black Tap Craft Burgers & Beer is known for its over-the-top milkshake dessert creations and is now teaming up with 'by CHLOE' to create ultra-decadent vegan milkshakes—marking its first-ever vegan partnership.
The black, white and pink milkshake is made with the coconut-based Chill by CHLOE and is decorated with cupcakes, whipped cream, a lollipop and a generous amount of colorful candy sprinkles. The limited-edition vegan milkshake will appeal to those who like to tackle overindulgent desserts like competitive eaters, as well as a rising number of consumers who are looking for healthy plant-based dessert options.
While Black Tap traditionally uses dairy in the making of its signature shakes, chef and owner Joe Isidori says: "We recognize the need for more vegan options so we're definitely looking to add some more vegetarian and vegan items to our menus."
