At Protea Hotel Balalaika Sandton, Christmas isn’t just in the air — it’s in the glass.
Their Candy Cane Milkshake, available through December and January at Coffee on Twenty, is the kind of sweet, peppermint-kissed indulgence that turns even the grumpiest Grinch into a jolly milkshake believer.
At R55, it’s a guilt-free festive treat that tastes like childhood nostalgia and holiday magic collided in the best possible way. Think peppermint bark meets milkshake bliss — refreshing, sweet, and absolutely irresistible.
- This merry masterpiece starts with a creamy vanilla base, blended with cool peppermint and generous handfuls of crushed candy cane. It’s then tinted the perfect shade of festive pink — the colour equivalent of holiday joy — before being crowned with a snowy swirl of whipped cream and extra candy cane crunch for good measure.
Whether guests are popping in for a post-shopping cooldown, a coffee break with friends, or simply a sip of seasonal whimsy, this shake special is guaranteed to deliver a smile with every frosty mouthful.
It’s festive. It’s fabulous. And it’s only around for a limited time…
So sip the sweetness of the season before it melts away.
