The Cookout Malted Milk milkshake is the lightest way to get malt at Cook Out: 606 calories in a 33.4 oz cup, typically $3.99. It shares one record with the Chocolate Malt shake: 56% of the Daily Value for calcium, tied for the highest on the menu. No ranking or reviewer lists it by name, so the evidence comes from its chocolate sibling and from what malt does to the label.
Does anyone review the plain Malted Milk shake?
Not by name. The Daily Meal, Mashed, The Talon and the fan scorer at cookoutmilkshakereviews.com all review Chocolate Malt and none lists plain Malted Milk. Tripadvisor reviewers praise Cook Out shakes in general, with titles like "Milk Shakes the Best!" from Bristol, Virginia and "Milk Shake Does Not Disappoint" from Charlotte, but none names this flavor.
What does malt taste like in a Cook Out shake?
Salty, slightly gritty and old-fashioned. The Daily Meal describes malt powder as giving a slightly gritty, salty note that dials down the sweetness. The fan scorer compared the Chocolate Malt to Whopper malted milk balls and said it brims with malty goodness. A vanilla base lets the malt carry the flavor alone.
What does malt do to a vanilla shake?
Next to plain Vanilla, Malted Milk adds 51 calories and 57 milligrams of sodium, and little else. The malt shows up in the salt, which matches the description of the Chocolate Malt.
