Sweet & Salty Chocolate Shake


Growing up I was a milk fiend. I could drink a gallon a day if left to my own vices, the stuff was like crack to me. I would drink milk with damn near any meal (yeah I kept it real Kosher as a kid you can tell) and to this day still drink quite a bit of milk. 

The thing is, you just cant buy any brand of milk because often-times it is full of garbage hormones, drugs and steroids. I like to purchase Milk from reputable stores and from even more reputable brands. Spend a little time having a few taste tests between brands and see if you can tell the difference in what your buying. Well today is National Milk Day and with that we give you the Sweet & Salty Chocolate Milkshake. 

Combining sweet homemade Chocolate Syrup with a dash of Kosher Salt and Milk together will provide you with such a different tasting Shake, you will be truly grateful you tried this recipe out. For those that are truly skilled, bust out the Arbuelita chocolate and make a sauce from that, now that’s the business.

Enjoy National Milk Day!
