malted milkshake

Creamy fountain drink

A malted milkshake is a milkshake made with malt powder—a sweet, toasty powder derived from malted barley.

The malt adds a distinctive nutty, slightly caramelized flavor that distinguishes it from a regular milkshake.

Often called simply a malt or malted: I'll have a chocolate malt.

The term is sometimes redundant, since milkshakes at old-fashioned soda fountains traditionally included malt.
