Why Are They Called Cracker Jacks?
Legend has it that the name “Cracker Jack” came from a customer who, upon trying the treat, exclaimed, “that really a cracker — Jack!” The name stuck. However, “crackerjack” was also a slang expression that meant “something pleasing or excellent.” This is more likely to have been the origin of the name. The Cracker Jack name was registered in 1896.
Top Tips For A Cracker Jack Caramel Popcorn Vanilla Milkshake
- You can use any ice cream that you want to, but for the best tasting milkshakes, use a premium quality ice cream. Ideally, choose something with natural ingredients.
- If you want the milkshake thicker, crush some ice cubes to thicken your milkshake. Your ice cream may be cold, but crushed ice will bolster the chill in the milk to produce a thicker shake.
- Make sure your milkshake mixture is blended until completely smooth.
- Make sure to swirl your caramel in the glass before pouring in the milkshake.
