We got milkshakes as our drinks on the dining plan, and still got desserts. I got chocolate and it was very evident it was a pre-made vanilla shake with some squirts of chocolate syrup in it. Mine was not mixed when they brought it out. I'm sure they are like this so they can be bottomless. So as a PP said, it's very much like a McDonald's milkshake with chocolate or strawberry syrup thrown in. Not a milkshake with chocolate ice cream and milk that's blended while you wait, like at B&C or Sci Fi or Plaza, but still good.
