Then how about a salted caramel milkshake?
“Milk is not only a healthy beverage, it’s also the basis for many fun drinks like milkshakes. Drinking a milkshake brings out the kid in everyone, but each flavor highlights a person’s personality.” ~ Chef Mariah Swan
Yesterday we were lucky enough to attend the Got Milk? event at hot spot, LA eatery, BLD. The team from Got Milk? were on hand to teach us why (especially as women), it’s important to have plenty of milk. You know…it does a body good 
There were delicious pastries provided by Chef Mariah Swan and more milkshakes than you knew what to do with. There were even a couple build-your-own shake stations set up.
To be honest, half of them didn’t sound all that enticing to us so we didn’t get around to trying all of them. But the ones we did try were quite good. And believe it or not, there is such a thing as too many milkshakes – even if they’re only in shooter-sized glasses.
Our favorite milkshake of the event was the caramel tequila shake – a big hit with many of the ladies. A close second was the salted caramel shake. Trust us, it was heaven in a frosty glass.
There were quite a few different flavors getting passed around – Blueberry Malt; Frozen Mexican Chocolate; Orange Dreamsicle; High School Musical’s Monique Coleman creation, Cookie Jar Milkshake; an oddly delicious, peanut butter cheesecake and so much more. We noticed at least eight or more frozen temptations going on around the room.
If you’d like to try out some of the recipes from the event (sadly, the caramel tequila recipe isn’t available), you can find them here (along with many other yummy milky concoctions).
To get you through the rest of summer season, here’s the recipe for their amazing Salted Caramel Milkshake:
1 pint vanilla ice cream
1/4 cup caramel sauce
1/2 cup milk
1 tbs salt
Combine all ingredients and blend. Divide between two glasses and top with whipped cream, a drizzle of caramel sauce and enjoy!
And did I mention that there were also tarot readers there? What a fun event.
