If Will, Grace, Karen, and Jack ever happened to wander over from Will and Grace's apartment to the Upper West Side Shake Shack location, you can be sure that Karen would almost immediately empty her ever-present flask of gin directly into her Black & White shake. But now, in honor of the upcoming Will & Grace reboot, Shake Shack has released two new milkshake flavors inspired by the iconic early-aughts show—and Karen wouldn't have any complaints.
According to a press release from the burger chain, the limited edition “Will & Grace” and “Jack & Karen” shakes will be available for $5.99 each at New York City's Herald Square and UWS locations, as well as Los Angeles's Hollywood and West Hollywood restaurants, from September 18 until October 1. The “Will & Grace” milkshake includes “cinnamon marshmallow frozen custard blended with Shack fudge and topped with whipped cream and cinnamon sugar,” while the “Jack & Karen” option—Shake Shack's first ever alcohol-infused shake—features “strawberry frozen custard blended with prosecco and topped with whipped cream, rainbow sprinkles, and raspberry dust.”
The prosecco isn't even the best part (although Karen might beg to differ). Shake Shack also announced that, in partnership with NBC, they will donate $2 from every sale of the Will & Grace-themed shakes to GLAAD, in support of “its efforts to share culture-changing LGBTQ stories.” During its eight-season run, the series won four of the five “Outstanding Comedy Series” GLAAD Media Awards for which it was nominated, and all three of the “Outstanding TV Comedy Series” nods it received.
If you're not located near any of the participating Shake Shack locations, you can still get your drink on in honor of the Will & Grace reboot premiere on September 28 with a wide variety of prosecco-infused desserts. Try your hand at crafting Prosecco-Raspberry Gelée, Tangerine and Prosecco Sorbet, Strawberry Sorbato, and Prosecco Floats—or, you know, you could just down one of the squad's famous dirty martinis.
