Salty Caramel Yogurt Shakes. {Video!}

I have the greatest idea for the last official day of summer.

I’m meshing the very last of summer and the start of fall right here in this drink!

In the form of salty caramel yogurt shakes, which might be the only thing I want to drink for the rest of the year.

I’ve partnered with Chobani here to bring you the most incredible shake inspired by one of their Flip flavors that I love: Salted Caramel Crunch. Oh mylanta. This flavor is pure heaven and 100% feels like I’m eating dessert when I snack on one. Also – all the texture in the crunchy pieces?! Cannot handle.

Which means I had to make a perfect dessert inspired by my faux snack dessert. It was one of my better ideas, if I do say so myself.

We have an icy refreshing dessert shake filled with that perfect flavor of autumn: salted caramel.

Okay, confession time. I wasn’t ALWAYS a caramel person. Well, I was and then I wasn’t. I was as a kid – perhaps I overdid it? But in the last few years I haven’t been as into salted caramel as the rest of the world.

Until!

Until last year, when I made a super delicious salted caramel sauce and wanted to drizzle it all over my entire life. Oh my WORD. I don’t know what changed but it was so perfect that I instantly wanted a jar in my fridge at all times. Not really safe, you know? I can’t be helped.

This shake starts out by using the caramel yogurt from the delicious Chobani Flip that comes with salty pretzel pieces, candied pecans and chocolate chips. It’s a sweet and salty lovers’ dream come true!

We have the yogurt, some French vanilla ice cream (the French vanilla part is totally key!), milk, salted caramel sauce and ice. Blend blend blend!

More salted caramel sauce all over the inside of a the glass, just to take things up a huuuuuge notch. We could have just done the rim, but what’s the fun in that?

Once you pour in the shake, you want to top it off with the pretzels, pecans and chocolate. Use a spoon to start at the top of the yogurt shake and then make your way down the rest of the glass with a straw.

I CAN DIE HAPPY NOW.
