Shakes as a meal may rattle a nutritionist as a substantive choice unless made with a bushel of kale and chia but, after a challenging week, sometimes dessert for dinner is the best solution. Besides, it’s better than infusing yourself with your happy hour favorite.
Our holiday Fun Friday go-to is a peppermint milk shake, which has the right combo of creamy and mint that tastes like drinking a frozen candy cane.
