A Malt Machine for "B"

My friend B loves malts.  The thick old-fashioned ones from her childhood.  Sometimes I pick her up and we go to the drive-in for a chocolate one.

When I was antique shopping a few weeks ago I came across this;  a little scrubbing...

And some of these...the perfect gift for B.

  2. Bonniw -- what a lucky friend, and what a good friend you are! I adore malts -- love malt powder. I used to waitress at an ice cream parlor, during my high school years, where they served malts and shakes. Funny thing was when they made malts and shakes they didn't use their wonderful ice cream; they used a malt base. What an absolutely great gift! Joni

  3. Lucky B - how fun! I love a good shake too, but my blender just isn't up to the task.

  4. It's so retro, love the color and the look. I haven't had a malt in years.

  6. OH my goodness! I have a Milkshake Machine too and I totally forgot about it. It must be in the basement somewhere, I'll have to dig it out and give it a whirl!
