National Chocolate<br />
Milkshake Day<br />
National Chocolate Milkshake Day is observed<br />
each year on <strong>September</strong> 12 th by chocolate and<br />
ice cream lovers alike. Forget the calories in it for<br />
just this one day and enjoy a nice tall, thick and<br />
delicious, chocolate milkshake! The first time the<br />
term “milkshake” was used in print was in 1885.<br />
During this period, milkshake referred to an<br />
alcoholic beverage which was an alcoholic drink<br />
described as a “sturdy, healthful eggnog type of drink” which was a<br />
blend of eggs, whiskey and other ingredients served both as a tonic<br />
and treat at pharmacies.<br />
• By 1900 milkshakes were referred to as “wholesome drinks made<br />
with chocolate, strawberry or vanilla syrup.”<br />
• The early 1900s - people began asking for this “new treat” with a<br />
scoop of ice cream.<br />
• 1911 - The Hamilton Beach’s drink mixers began to be used at soda<br />
fountains.<br />
• 1922 - Steven Poplawski invented the electric blender or drink<br />
mixer.<br />
• Due to the invention of the blender, the milkshake began to take a<br />
chipped, aerated and frothy form as they are today.<br />
• It was by the 1930s that milkshakes became a popular drink in malt<br />
shops everywhere.<br />
HOW TO OBSERVE<br />
To celebrate, enjoy a Chocolate Milkshake at your favorite restaurant<br />
or soda fountain. You may want to top off your chocolate milkshake<br />
with a dollop of whipped cream! Use #ChocolateMilkshakeDay to<br />
post on social media.<br />
