I've never seen them outside of New York. I'm not sure if it's because it's a regional delicacy or if I just consider it a New York treat. But when made well, a Black & White milkshake can be a thing of pure joy.
Do not confuse these with chocolate milkshakes. Black & White milkshakes begin with vanilla ice cream and chocolate syrup is added, leading to a different flavor profile than a shake made with chocolate ice cream.
Creamier than chocolate, with just the right balance of sweetness and chocolate tempered with vanilla, Black & White milkshakes are magical.
Days like this make me happy to live in New York.
Note: For a grown-up treat, add some vodka for a Mudslide type drink.
