A MILKSHAKE bar is coming to Southend with more than 100 flavours from Twiglets to peanut butter.

Shake It milkshake bar is set to open on April 26 near the railway bridge in Southend High Street.

Steve Vincent and Sam Phillips, both from Westcliff, decided on the venture after seeing similar cafes elsewhere in the country.

Steve, 26, said: "Southend seemed to be missing out on a milkshake bar, so we decided two years ago to fill the gap. The town has lots of coffee shops but this is unique.

"We have been making up as many different flavours we could think of and testing them on our friends to see what works and what doesn't."

They have now come up with a menu of over 100 flavours, including Weetabix, jam doughnuts and blackjack, and seasonal offerings like Christmas pudding.

There will also be the more usual milkshake flavours and fruity tastes.
