Mercury News: Bay Area’s best milkshakes: Here are 9 places to try this summer

July 22, 2024 by Obrien's Ice Cream

The Mercury News discovered the incredible milkshakes that O'briens Ice Cream has to offer

Green and pink walls adorn this bright, cheerful ice cream shop, which has Mexican and South American flavor influences, offering ice cream flavors like guava, tequila, horchata, avocado and lucuma – an Andean fruit – as well as all the usuals, from chocolate to cherry. There with a friend? They kindly split our regular shake into two cups for sharing ease — and topped each with whipped cream — making the generous serving size a bit more manageable.

The shake: The Key lime pie milkshake ($8) captures all the pie’s characteristics, from graham cracker crust bits to tangy, almost cheesecake-like flavors and tangy lime in thick, slurpable form.

Pair it with: Those Mexican and South American influences extend to spicy street snacks, including tostilocos, and other treats.

Details: Opens at noon daily at 704 Bancroft Road, Walnut Creek and 6710 Alhambra Ave., Martinez; obriens-icecream.com.
