The malted milkshake was born in 1922. That’s 104 years ago!

That year, a soda fountain employee dropped ice cream into a malted milk drink and, without realizing it, created the version we still order a century later.

Come get the Classic Chocolate Malt at MilkShake Factory — one of six All-American Classics, here for a limited time only.
