Strawberry Milkshake by the Sea — Postcard

A tall strawberry milkshake, piled high with whipped cream and syrup, sits on a wicker table with the sea stretching out behind it — the kind of drink that means the day has slowed down to beach-chair pace.

A sweet trigger for anyone who associates summer with the first cold drink of the season, or a way to send a taste of vacation to someone stuck at a desk.
