Chocolate Milkshake Day celebrates cold beverage that combines milk, ice cream, and chocolate.
1885 was the year the word "milkshake" first appeared in print. Initially, milkshakes were an adult drink of whisky, eggs, and milk. With the popularity of ice cream coupled with the expansion of refrigeration and the invention of the electric blender in 1911, this whisky nog soon added ice cream as an ingredient.
The 1920s popularized the drink, now without alcohol. Youth particularly enjoyed milkshakes prompting soda shops to open nationwide. The next incarnation of the milkshake would come in the form of malt, first introduced to the milkshake by Walgreens Pharmacy soda jockey Ivar Coulson in 1922. Malt flavors ice cream with a smokey flavor and is created from evaporated milk, malted barley, and wheat flour.
With the invention of the automatic mixer in 1936, the classic drink morphed into fast food that millions could consume.
