9. Taco Bell: Grande Soft Taco

"It’s basically two soft tacos with all the fillings in one tortilla, and then there's nacho cheese spread between the two tortillas. If the location I'm at won't make it, I get two soft tacos and a cup of nacho cheese and assemble it myself." —u/Wthermans

10. Dairy Queen: Off-Menu Blizzard

@yeahthatskosher / Via instagram.com

"You can also add the fudge and chocolate crumbles at the center of DQ cakes into your Blizzard." —u/nahzoo

13. Tim Hortons: Iced Capp With Whipped Cream Or Chocolate Milk

@anicaisafoodie / Via instagram.com

u/Lioness90 / Via imgur.com

19. McDonald's: The McGangBang

u/La_Jolla / Via reddit.com

20. Starbucks: Butter Beer Frappuccino

"Ask for a Creme Frappuccino base (with whole milk). Add 3 pumps of caramel syrup, 3 pumps of toffee nut syrup, and top it with a caramel drizzle." —u/Uniclaire

21. In-N-Out Burger: Neapolitan Milk Shake
