Peach Pie Oh My

Back on July 4th, we tried Shake Shack's special Blueberry Pie Oh My concrete and loved it.  We noted then that we had missed out on Peach Pie Oh My and hoped to get it the next time it came around. Over Labor Day weekend, Shake Shack ran a few more specials to celebrate the end of summer - corn dogs and Peach Pie Oh My! 


Like the blueberry concrete, this was vanilla custard with a slice of peach pie mixed in.


Although we really liked the blueberry pie concrete, the peach pie one failed to impress (and it was not because of our high expectations).  It looks like soup in the photo and it was fairly melted when we got it, but I don't think that was the problem.  The pie just didn't mix in well.  It felt too soggy and like glue in the custard.  There were peaches, but the concrete itself didn't have a lot of peach flavor if you weren't eating a peach piece (which were whole and not broken up at all by the mixing).  Maybe blueberry pie just mixes in better.  We didn't really like it. But we've heard so many great things about it, so maybe we will give it another try next year (and just hope this was an outlier experience).
