Shake Shack's Holiday Shakes Are Back — Including a Fan-Favorite From Last Year

Dear readers, it’s officially November, which means it’s time to move on from fall flavors and head straight to holiday treats. And Shake Shack is here for it. 

On Friday, the fast food joint announced its 2024 Holiday Shake lineup, which is just as sweet and spectacular as you’d expect. It includes three shakes, all priced starting at $6.49, offering a semi-cheap thrill.

The holiday shake menu includes the return of the Christmas Cookie Shake made with sugar cookie frozen custard topped with “whipped cream, crumbled shortbread, and holiday sprinkles,” according to Shake Shack. There’s also the Chocolate Yule Log Shake, made with a chocolate frozen custard base hand-spun with “chocolate cake, topped with whipped cream, cake crumbles, and festive sprinkles.” 

Last but certainly not least is the Apple Cider Donut Shake, which feels a little more fall-appropriate, but we’ll take it. It’s made with apple cider donut frozen custard, which is hand-spun and topped with whipped cream and cinnamon donut crunch.

However, this isn’t the only fun holiday surprise Shake Shack dropped today. It also launched its holiday merch for those super fans out there who want to deck the halls with some burgers and fries. 

The collection features four holiday ornaments created in partnership with Craftspring, a New York-based, woman-led ornaments and gifts specialist. The first is a teeny, tiny burger on top of a Shake Shack napkin, which the company shared is “produced ethically and sustainably,” adding that “each limited-edition ornament is handcrafted with the same care we proudly put into all our menu items.” There’s also a Christmas Cookie Shake ornament, a Lady Liberty Ornament (to show love to their home state), and a Madison Square Park ornament, which the company noted is “perfect for New Yorkers and all our fans from day one.” 

There’s also a Shake Shack ugly sweater in the merch collection that’s perfect for “your holiday parties and cozy lounge moments at home,” along with a black truffle salt & oil duo that may not be totally holiday-focused, but will “bring out the flavors of Shake Shack’s Black Truffle limited-time menu at home.” The merch collection and the shakes are all available now.
