They were so tiny that I couldn\u2019t discern much flavor. Were they chocolate bits or graham cracker bits? When I had drunk more of the shake and could see beyond the whipped topping, it was clear that the really tiny bits were the graham and the larger flakes were chocolate.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display:block; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/dqsmoreshak2.jpeg?resize=600%2C600&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Dairy Queen S mores Shake Top\" title=\"dqsmoreshak2.jpeg\" border=\"0\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Flavor-wise, it\u2019s a giant marshmallow-flavored kick in the face. There\u2019s no subtlety here, not that I wanted any. The graham bits and chocolate flakes added enough texture to create a nice mouthfeel, but the marshmallow flavor of the product still overwhelmed the graham and chocolate notes. Strangely as I got deeper into the shake, the chocolate pieces were bigger, and it added more chocolatey-ness to the experience.<\/p>\n<p>This is a thick shake, so thick that I sometimes had trouble sucking it up with my straw. This isn\u2019t Wendy\u2019s Frosty \u201cGive up on straws, you need a spoon here\u201d territory, but it\u2019s getting there.<\/p>\n<p>For some reason, this shake didn\u2019t strike me as being as addictive as the shakes from Five Guys, currently my go-to for milkshakes. It\u2019s good, but it just doesn\u2019t have that same \u201cOMG I have to shovel this in my face immediately!\u201d quality. What\u2019s the secret? Perhaps the quality of the base dairy product? Clearly, I need to do more research on this topic and drink many, many more shakes \u2014 for science.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display:block; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/dqsmoreshak3.jpeg?resize=600%2C600&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Dairy Queen S mores Shake Straw\" title=\"dqsmoreshak3.jpeg\" border=\"0\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I should note that the shake is very sweet, but let\u2019s be honest: I\u2019m a person who reviews milkshakes from Dairy Queen. If \u201ctoo sweet\u201d were ever an issue, I probably would not be in the milkshake-review game.<\/p>\n<h3>Anything else you need to know?<\/h3>\n<p>Dairy Queen\u2019s website tells us that \u201cOne sip and you\u2019re sure to be left wanting s\u2019more,\u201d so you can be satisfied that no opportunity to make that old-as-the-hills pun was spared. It\u2019s not a lie though; I finished my whole shake and I still kind of want s\u2019more. Having any more at this point would probably make me sick, but I still want it.<\/p>\n<h3>Conclusion:<\/h3>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display:block; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/dqsmoreshak4.jpeg?resize=600%2C800&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Dairy Queen S mores Shake Angle\" title=\"dqsmoreshak4.jpeg\" border=\"0\" width=\"600\" height=\"800\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The S\u2019mores shake is a very respectable attempt to turn the gooey, classic summer snack into a drinkable delight.
