I was out with my sister & nephew earlier and we decided to try out the new milkshake shop in Liverpool One. Its basically Starbucks but for milkshakes. Now we saw their display of sweets and figured that they were to buy. They weren't. They were the flavours. All the flavours of a sweet shop available as a milkshake. Oreos, jammie dodgers, marmite (!?!), twix, double decker, refreshers (!!!), choc muffin, strawberry cheese cake, any cadburys bar like a curly wurly, creme egg, m&ms, everything! I got me a caramel dairy milk milkshake and its about the finest drink ever made. Starbucks just lost a customer. Its also nice that the girl there is as cute as a cute thing serving milkshake, but I'm 85% there for the shake... and the drink...

Oooh that sounds delicious

Liverpool One's by the dock isn't it? If not, I apologise, my Liverpool geography is shocking

It is. Its just across the road from Albert Dock. Top floor by the Odeon if you're ever in that area. Highly recommended.

Should I really say if they did?

www.shakeabout.co.uk lists their flavours but not locations.

There is one in Bluewater (where I work). I'm such a regular that they invented a mix up for me.

Chocolate Sex:

1 x Choc Muffin
Handful of marshmellows
2 x packs of Oreos
Choc sauce
random choc-based ingredient thats laying around

There is Shakesaway in Brighton.... one of my favourite shops!

Fave is Milkybar... also Mango or Pear.

Also a shop in Greenwich that does the same thing.

Yum!

There's been a Shakeaway in Soton for several years - t'is sooo yum - I usually end up with something chocolate/bananary

Been to one of these on a day out somewhere with some BD'ers, pretty sure it was Brighton. Can't remember what I had, but I do know it was loaded with chocs and was proper nice
