There is some joy, as an adult, in playing a kid’s game. There is also some joy in a midday buzz. Thanks to Turn 12, you can feel like a kid again, but stumble out into the daylight, slurring your words. The reason? Alcoholic milkshakes. You can get mint chocolate chip, peach, peanut butter or other flavors, each with a shot-and-a-half of liquor. What is more, these are rich, thick shakes that would be just fine on their own. It’s just that the folks at Turn 12 found a way to make milkshakes even better.
