Thicker than plaster… can't drink 'em faster… because they're so thick that you have to eat them with a spoon.
The milkshakes at Taylor's Refresher in St. Helena are, hands down, the best milkshakes in the valley.
Of particular note: the Espresso Bean Milkshake has climbed onto our list of Top Three Chilled Things That You Can Do With Espresso. (In case you were wondering, the other two items on this list are:
- The affogato, a sometimes-served dessert, at Chez Panisse, Berkeley. This is little more than espresso poured over rich vanilla ice cream. So good that it is worth a detour to Berkeley — from anywhere on the planet!
- The Espresso Granita with Whipped Cream, served at Zuni Café in San Francisco. It's almost always on the menu. A showstopper!)
In addition to Taylor's Espresso Bean milkshake, we like the alarmingly good Black & White Milkshake and the White Pistachio shake, which may induce severe psychological trauma - you'll obsess about knowing how soon before you can get back to the roadside stand for a refill.
There are no indoor seats at Taylor's, so be sure it's a warm-ish day when you head over for milkshakes.
