- Drizzle sauce - You can even slide the glass and add butterscotch sauce along the sides of glass before pouring the milkshake. It makes it look more attractive and kids like that.

Serving and Storage
Serve Butterscotch Milkshake immediately in tall glasses with little extra sauce drizzle on top if you like. This goes well as evening treat or simple dessert after lunch. It is best consumed fresh and not stored for long hours. If you refrigerate also, texture may change little and froth will reduce.
