A Creamy Sensation

I have always been a rather big fan of Chick-Fil-A's hand spun milkshakes.

When they first came out a few years ago I made every effort to gather up as many coupons as possible to get free shakes. I typically go with the cookies and cream shake which is always a win. Between the thick yet creamy taste of the shake and the ever important whipped cream on top you can't go wrong with Chick-Fil-A.

Last year they launched a mint flavored shake which was very disappointing. It was very "syrupy" and the flavor tasted processed and fake.

When Chick-Fil-A recently announced the new Coffee Caramel Milkshake I was weary to give a try since their last attempt at introducing a new flavor wasn't very successful. It wasn't until a reader commented of its' amazingness that I was convinced I needed to try one immediately. It's always good to have a sister-in-law around who supports the cause and she picked up one for me yesterday.

Wow.

The Coffee Caramel Milkshake is a creamy sensation.

It's good and by good I mean life changing.

The coffee and caramel flavors blend perfectly. One flavor is not more powerful than the other. Imagine the perfect Frappuccino from Starbucks (minus the ice) and basically that's what this shake tastes like. The milkshake at Chick-Fil-A is different than any other coffee frozen drink I have tried because it's not "icy". Instead of the ice you get a big serving of creamy delicious coffee and caramel flavoring mixed with ice cream.

I don't know if there is any actual coffee in this shake, however it doesn't matter. Next time you are thinking of going to Starbucks or any other coffee place to get a frozen drink turn around and go to Chick-Fil-A.

Plus - it comes in an amazing cup, and feel free to pick up some butt free waffle fries while you're there.

So...that looks like the most amazing drink ever created....because I live right next to a Chick-fil-a...I do believe a trip tomorrow before class is appropriate.

Dan we shall discuss in Tourism.

Alright, so I just got back from Chick-Fil-a...and have to say I just experienced one of the best shakes I have had in my life. It was a perfect combination of Carmel and Coffee...it was think, creamy, and full of flavor. I give it SUPER DUPER...in the anchorman award department.

So get your "butts" out to chick-fil-a and try it!

no actual coffee, just a pre-made syrup.

when i worked there, i made a custom mocha shake. it's just like the chocolate shake, only with coffee instead of shake mix. the coffee melts the ice cream down & u get the perfect creamy blend.
