Who Has the Best Milkshakes? Who has the best milkshakes? There are a lot of options: Dairy Queen, Burger King, McDonalds, Baskin Robbins, etc. But if you want a fresh, delicious shake, Burgerville is at the top of the list. The Burgerville company prides itself on its fresh ingredients and seasonal menu (Burgerville). Customers can enjoy shakes made from in-season strawberries, raspberries, blackberries, huckleberries, pumpkin and, of course, hazelnuts. Burgerville faire even gets attention from the national media, including the New York Times and the Associated Press. Gourmet magazine recently named Burgerville “America’s Freshest Fast Food”, pointing to their chocolate hazelnut milkshake as an example of quality (Stern 55). Personally, I can’t think of a tastier, frosty treat. Who has the best milkshakes? Burgerville does. Works Cited Burgerville Home Page. 25 May 2004 <http://www.burgerville.com/bv.html>.
