Frappe. Typically in the New England states and some other eastern states prior to the the mid-1960's, restaurants and other food service providers gave you a choice of a "milkshake" or a "frappe". The "milkshake" was just that, milk whipped with a flavoring syrup such as chocolate, strawberry, coffee, or vanilla. The "frappe" had the same base, but was thickened with scoops of ice cream — usually vanilla ice cream, but sometimes ice cream of the same flavor as the syrup used. It was frappeed (Pronounced, frapp-aid) in a tall metal mixing cup. When served, the frappe (Pronounced, frapp) was poured into a glass and the balance of the frappe was left in the mixing cup and placed alongside of the glass so that you could finish the whole drink.
