cimoreneThese shakes are both the best icecream available to us and the best sweet cocktail I've ever had (I guess stretching the definition of cocktail a bit, although you could increase the alcohol ratio without making it less delicious).
It HAS gotten fairly hot outside a few times, into the 80s F, but our house is well designed and situated and it doesn't really get that hot, even without air conditioning. In fact, I suggested making icecream shakes almost as soon as I got home, so I was still warm from having walked a mile and a half in the sun; if I'd just laid down by the window for ten minutes instead I'd have cooled off too far to eat icecream without bundling up in a blanket first.
