Milkshake, thick, takeaway

A thick takeaway milkshake is a milk-based drink. The figures here cover samples from brands offering chocolate, vanilla and banana flavours. It mainly provides carbohydrate, including sugars, along with protein and some fat. Per 100g, it contains 15g of carbohydrate, 11g of sugars, 3.7g of protein and 129mg of calcium.

Calcium helps maintain bones and teeth, while protein supports the growth and repair of body tissues. Milkshakes contain sugars and saturated fat, which are worth noting for people monitoring their intake. The amount consumed depends on the size of the drink, and recipes vary between brands and flavours. Full nutritional figures are in the tables below.
