I specifically liked vanilla ice cream with chocolate syrup (aka a "black and white" or "black cow"). The taste was much better than just using chocolate ice cream. When people ask what a malted shake tastes like I mention Whoppers candy as an example.<br />Yum!Davidnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3517930528722566088.post-28560103350430142492008-12-18T07:54:00.000-05:002008-12-18T07:54:00.000-05:00I used to go to Friendly's (up in Centerville) and...I used to go to Friendly's (up in Centerville) and order a Fribble, which I guess is a New England 'frappe.'

I will submit to milkshakes on occasion if they feature a particularly flavorful addition, such as black walnuts, but generally stick with malts. Graeters makes a pretty outstanding black cherry malt, generally speaking. For what it's worth, I'm the only person among my family or friends who ever gets malts instead of milkshakes.J.R.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02091574397159014671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3517930528722566088.post-32334038499965933882008-12-01T19:36:00.000-05:002008-12-01T19:36:00.000-05:00Mmm pineapple and blueberry malts, i have a new ma...Mmm pineapple and blueberry malts, i have a new malt hit list.Allison Johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08979633913585965204noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3517930528722566088.post-24679897172319461842008-12-01T14:03:00.000-05:002008-12-01T14:03:00.000-05:00Malted.

Pineapple malt sounds odd, but trust me, it's delish.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
