Shake Shack’s New Cherry Blossom Shake Is Really, Truly Kicking Off Spring
Last week marked the official beginning of spring, but some might argue now that Shake Shack's new Cherry Blossom Shake is here, we can now declare our collective favorite season a-go. The Daily Meal reports the limited-time shake-which previously had only been on menus in a few different iterations at the chain's Japan locations-can finally be ordered at American restaurants.
Shake Shack itself describes the objectively gorgeous drink as "made from vanilla frozen custard blended with cherry blossom [and] topped with pink chocolate curls." It's unclear exactly how long the shake will be around, but (1) the timing will probably coincide with Japan's sakura season as the drink is a nod to exactly that and (2) that hasn't stopped people from flocking to their local Shake Shack to get the shake and put it up on Instagram ASAP.
Early reports vary: Some say the drink is a perfect level of sweetness, others comment the cherry blossom syrup gives the shake a bit of a medicinal taste. One thing everyone agrees on? It's Instagrammable as all hell.
Regardless, you can find the pretty pretty thing at a Shake Shack near you. Happy Spring/cherry blossom season/nice weather, etc., etc. Xoxoxoxoo MWAH!
