When you think of the holidays in Disney World, what comes to mind?
Is it the massive trees around the parks and hotels? Is it the snoap falling on Main Street? Or is it over-the-top treats that taste like peppermint and chocolate? For us, it’s all of the above!!
And speaking of over-the-top treats, you HAVE to lay your eyes on this shake topped with an entire donut from Hollywood Studios. We have seen shakes like these before from Hollywood Scoops, so we were really eager to give the Candy Cane Milkshake a try!
The Candy Cane Milkshake is a peppermint ice cream shake topped with whipped cream, a chocolate cake doughnut, and candy cane sprinkles for $9.49. (Ok, we’re drooling just reading the description).
And rightfully so, because boy was this milkshake a HIT. It’s a peppermint milkshake with a hint of peppermint flavor — and it tastes like Christmas. We do sort of wish there was a stronger peppermint taste, but the combination of vanilla and mint was excellent. Fair warning, though — this thing is SWEET and we found ourselves needing to take a doughnut break about halfway through.
The chocolate cake doughnut was incredibly moist and pretty light for a cake doughnut, which can be pretty dense. The festive red and white sprinkles don’t add much in the way of flavor, but they are fun and make this milkshake Insta-worthy.
Add the Candy Cane Milkshake to your list if you love milkshakes or anything peppermint!
This is just one of the MANY treats coming to Hollywood Studios this holiday season. You can see the rest of them here — and be sure to stay tuned to DFB for even more holiday treat reviews!
