That's too bad then. Seems like Mass is using milkshakes to mean frappes now so foreigners don't get confused.Trust me. Back in the day a Friendly's would never call something with ice cream a milkshake.I live in Cali now, but I still call them frappes, much to the annoyance of everyone out here. But we know that a frappe is ice cream, not coffee!

I was recently in boston and had a confusing time of figuring out the fact that a milkshake did not contain ice cream, and if I wanted what I know as a milkshake, I had to ask for a frappe

I live in Seattle now and milkshakes and frappes are two of the things I miss the most (along with "top- split" hot dog buns.) A milkshake here is more of a dessert that you eat with spoon than a beverage that you drink.
