Yum Alert: Vegan Almond Joy Milkshake

Vegan Almond Joy Milkshake
Written by emilyc

I recently had vegan ice cream from an ice cream truck, mostly because it seemed like a picturesque, Tumblr-ish thing to do, but I didn’t expect it to change my life, which it did. Vegan ice cream is everything, so I’m assuming that vegan milkshakes are everything and more. Here’s an Almond Joy one to start you on your path to vegan dessertness.
