Sonic’s Square Milkshakes Are Made Specifically To Post On Instagram

April 7, 2016 by Chris Durso

Face it… if it’s not posted on Instagram, it never happened. Sonic knows this, and wants to make sure that their milkshakes actually exist, by making them easier to post within Instagram’s square format.

Sonic’s Square Milkshakes, created in collaboration with Chef Jacques La Merde, are presented in a square glass, with square accents, and even topped with square cherries. However, sampling one of these shakes is anything but “square,” as it’s apparently one of the hipsterest things to ever hipster.

The Sonic Square Shakes will only be available at this year’s Coachella festival, and can be ordered through Instagram’s ‘Shop Now’ geo-targeted sponsored ads. No mention if they’re artisanal.

If you require a milkshake that will bring all the boys to the yard, look no further than these extreme milkshakes by Black Tap in New York City. And, damn right, it’s better than yours.

Somewhere in these very tall concoctions is an actual milkshake, but they’re then topped with accoutrements including full ice cream sandwiches, handfuls of candy, and giant lollipops.

Black Tap has locations in Soho and The Meatpacking District, and one of these milkshakes will run you $15 — which is reasonable, considering that one shake could feed a small village. Check out more and drool here.

There’s An Extreme Milkshake Epidemic

August 24, 2015 by Chris Durso

If you’re one who enjoys a milkshake with your meal, then you’ll probably have no problem with a meal right on top of your milkshake. It’ll save a plate.

Apparently, there’s a trend of extreme milkshakes in Sydney, Australia — where restaurants, cafés, and ice cream shops vie for gut-busting and gravity defying supremacy.

Photographer Alana Dimou wants in on the trend, and has created a few extreme milkshakes of her own. From S’mores Chicken to a towering Bacon Cheeseburger atop a mason jar, it’s up to the viewer to not only ask, “why?” but then try to figure out how one would consume such a monstrosity.
