The latest addition to the Shake Shack lineup is the 'Pistachio Shake,' which draws inspiration from the beloved Middle Eastern delicacy, baklava, and showcases a delightful fusion of global flavors. Making its debut in Hong Kong before reaching a wider audience, the 'Pistachio Shake' begins with a frozen custard base infused with the delectable flavor of Italian pistachios.
The beverage captures the essence of the flaky pastry dough found in baklava, complemented by candied nuts and a touch of sweet honey. It is topped with whipped cream, filo brittle, and crushed pistachios.
The Pistachio Shake will be available starting on June 6, with global availability following shortly after. Enthusiasts of this delectable creation can relish its flavors throughout the summer until the limited-time offering concludes on July 23.
