The fatter the milk, the fuller the taste. 2. Quality of ice cream (usually vanilla ice cream because this is just a base for the ice cream to match with other ingredients). 3. Throw in whatever ingredients you want. For gym, I throw in bananas, peanut butter and protein powder. 4. Blend the daylights out of the shake. <strong>Consistency<\/strong> is important.<\/p>\n<p>At MakeShake, they<strong> make their own vanilla ice cream<\/strong> as base for the milkshake, so the ice cream is less sweet. This is a good move because when the ingredients are blended in, the milkshake would turn out to be sweet but not saccharinely so.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/rubbisheatrubbishgrow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/12\/img_8855a.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"7019\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/rubbisheatrubbishgrow.com\/zh\/2011\/12\/18\/makeshake-little-india\/img_8855a\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/rubbisheatrubbishgrow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/12\/img_8855a.jpg?fit=2848%2C4272&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"2848,4272\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;4.5&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;Canon EOS 450D&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1323701594&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;29&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;800&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.04&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"IMG_8855a\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/rubbisheatrubbishgrow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/12\/img_8855a.jpg?fit=683%2C1024&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"alignleft  wp-image-7019\" title=\"IMG_8855a\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/rubbisheatrubbishgrow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/12\/img_8855a.jpg?resize=280%2C421\" alt=\"\" width=\"280\" height=\"421\" \/><\/a>When you order, you just have to pick the ingredients you want to add into the vanilla base. Each ingredient costs $0.70. The combinations are limitless. There are choices of <strong>chocolate<\/strong> (Kit Kat, M&amp;M, Kinder Bueno, etc), <strong>fruits<\/strong> (banana, long&#8217;an, etc), <strong>tea\/coffee<\/strong> (<strong>earl gray<\/strong> is a favorite among adults). <strong>Teenagers<\/strong> and <strong>students<\/strong>would love to mix their own favors, they are more adventurous than working adults. \u00a0If you don&#8217;t want to customize, the shop has a menu you can order from. For the menu, the small sizes cost $3.90 while the big cups cost $5.40.<\/p>\n<p>Hot boys, Jasper Aston Lim and Saunders Shen, customized their shakes. Jasper had a <strong>earl gray milkshake<\/strong>, which tasted refreshing. Saunders Shen had a <strong>peanut butter<\/strong> one; I forgot the taste. I ordered the shake on the menu, <strong>Peanut Butter Sandwich<\/strong>, consisting of peanut butter, banana and dark chocolate fudge. It was awesome! It tasted exactly like peanut butter sandwich, you can bite the bits of peanut in it. I love thick stuff&#8211;Saunders doesn&#8217;t&#8211;and peanut butter thickens the ice cream, which is fine to me. But the shake could be smoother. And towards the end, like all milkshakes, it got a bit excessive. Still, a pretty decent milkshake by all counts with a nice balance in taste.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ambience<\/strong>: MakeShake takes over the space for the horrible\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/rubbisheatrubbishgrow.com\/zh\/2011\/05\/26\/cottage-waffle-place-city-square-mall\/\">Cottage Waffle Place<\/a>, so this is a kiosk with some tables and chairs to sit. The only bad thing about the stall is the\u00a0<strong>location<\/strong>, a little away from the city\u00a0although it&#8217;s linked to <strong>Farrer Park MRT<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, the quality of the milkshake is good and it&#8217;s fun especially if you concoct your own mix.
