ABSTRACT
Milkshakes are commonly used as refreshing soft drinks, specially during summer or hot climate. Generally, milkshakes source high turbidity and contain high salt concentration1. In present study the following Indian brands of milkshakes are analyzed; namely Sunfeast, Cavin’s, Hershey’s, Paper boat, Amul and Winkin Cow. These thirteen milkshakes show high conductance, TDS and salinity. Four of them contain high sodium ion concentration, nine milkshakes have high potassium ion concentration. All the milkshakes contain nitrate ion higher than the amount specified by World Health Organization in drinkable water. All the milkshakes are rich with respect to calcium ions.
