Milkshake
奶昔
A milkshake, or simply a shake, is a sweet, cold dairy-based drink usually made with ice cream, milk or both. Outside the US, the drink is also called a thickshake, thick milkshake, or frappe.
奶昔（英文中又简称为shake），是一种香甜冰爽的奶制饮品，其原料通常为冰淇淋或牛奶，有时两者兼备。在美国以外的地区，奶昔还被称为thickshake、thick milkshake或frappe。
The traditional way of making a milkshake is to mix scoops of ice cream and milk in a blender or drink mixer. Now, there are automatic milkshake machines that freeze and serve a premade milkshake mixture consisting of milk, sweetened flavoring and thickening agents. Milkshakes come in a variety of flavors, including vanilla, strawberry, chocolate and banana.
奶昔的传统制法是将多匙冰淇淋和牛奶放入搅拌机或奶昔机中搅拌。如今的自动奶昔机可以将牛奶、甜味剂以及增稠剂通过混合、冷冻等工序直接完成。奶昔口味众多，包括香草、草莓、巧克力以及香蕉味等等。
