History
To study the history of the milkshake, you have to rewind history 135 years 1885, when taverns first began to prepare and serve milkshakes. But the first treats did not look anything like their modern counterparts – they were made from cream, eggs, and whiskey, which were whipped and mixed with lemonade or sparkling water. At the end of the 19th century, they began making drinks that looked more like the modern version, with the addition of syrups with different flavors, but the finished treat was not frozen. At the beginning of the 20th century, when the first drink mixer was produced, cocktails turned into a real milk dessert.
