About the Hungry Jack's Shake inspired by Skittles

The Shake inspired by Skittles at Hungry Jack's is $6.40 and 2,529 kJ, which makes it the single sweetest item on the entire Hungry Jack's menu at 92.7g of sugar.

Ninety two grams is around twenty three teaspoons in one drink. For context, it is more sugar than a Fanta Raspberry at 56.5g and a Vanilla Shake at 33.9g put together. Carbs are 109g, also the highest on the menu.

What it tastes like is exactly what the name promises: the fruit flavours of a bag of Skittles blended into dairy. That combination is unusual because fruit and milk are not natural partners, and the result reads more as a confectionery flavour than as a fruit one, which is the intention.

It is worth being clear about what this is. At 2,529 kJ it carries more energy than most burgers on the menu, and it is a dessert in a cup rather than a drink to have alongside a meal.

At $6.40 it sits with the Biscoff Shake above the standard four.

Who it suits: anyone ordering it as the whole dessert, and anyone curious. Ordering it alongside a burger and chips makes for a very large single sitting.

Compare against the Vanilla Shake at 1,064 kJ and 33.9g of sugar if you want a shake without the extremes.

How to Make the Hungry Jack's Shake inspired by Skittles at Home?

Fruit lollies and dairy is a genuinely difficult combination at home, because the acid in the lollies splits milk. Infusing rather than blending is the way around it. Makes 2 servings.

Tips

  • Cool the syrup completely. Acid plus heat plus milk equals curdled shake, and there is no recovering it.
  • Sort by colour. Red or orange alone gives a clean flavour; all colours together give brown.
  • Serve fast. Fruit acid in dairy is a slow reaction but it is a reaction.

Variations

  • Use one colour only for a single fruit flavour that is genuinely nicer.
  • Strawberry syrup instead gives a Strawberry Shake.
  • Pour the syrup over soft serve instead and avoid the dairy problem entirely.

Serve immediately. This is a dessert rather than a drink, and it is the sweetest thing in this whole recipe collection.
