Saturday Sweets: Cool for the Summer Milkshakes at Sweetness Bakeshop

In anticipation of the hotter months in Miami, Sweetness Bakeshop is getting together with some local favorites in the blogger community to create milkshakes that will make the summer a little bit more bearable. The Cool for the Summer Series of Shakes will be available starting June 15th - all the way until Labor Day.

Of course, my love for Sweetness Bakeshop landed me a spot on their list repping MIAbites, along with Sef aka Burger Beast, Cari aka Fatgirl Hedonist, and Gio aka Chat Chow TV.

Here are the drool-worthy milkshakes you can expect:

Burger Beast - Scotchy Scotch Scotch: vanilla ice cream, bananas, housemade butterscotch

Fatgirl Hedonist - Bacon Me Crazy: vanilla ice cream, salted caramel, bacon

Chat Chow - Cuban Protein Shake (Batido de Trigo): mantecado ice cream, Golden Smacks ‘trigo’, leche condensada

Amber Love of MIAbites - Strawberry ‘Nesquik’ Unicorn Shake: strawberry ice cream, unicorn candy toppings, candy coated cup

The moment I was asked to create a shake I almost immediately scream, “Nutella!” But then decided to be slightly less predictable, but completely Instagramable. I’ve always been a huge fan of strawberry milkshakes and completely guilty of loving Strawberry Nesquik as a kid. The pretty pink of the strawberry ice cream became the exact backdrop needed in order to create a perfect Unicorn Milkshake. The base is pretty simple - just really good strawberry ice cream that’s nostalgic of strawberry flavored Nesquik, served in a candy and sprinkle coated cup, topped with whipped cream, pink sanding sugar, large confetti pieces, and a unicorn horn marshmallow taffy. I may be bias but it’s the prettiest shake on the menu!

Just because I’m partial to my own shake, doesn’t mean I won’t spend my summer enjoying the other summer shakes on the menu! Stop by Sweetness Bakeshop and try them all. Spoiler Alert: there will be a special mid-summer milkshake addition by Miami’s One and Only Donut King, so keep an eye out!
