Sharjah shake is simply banana milkshake. It is found in juice shops and bakeries. The taste is slightly different from the normal banana milkshake and so is the color. However, this doesn’t make it any less refreshing. Children love milkshakes and it’s actually good for them so maybe you can pack it in their stainless lunch box. Wait, that’s not possible- they will have to wait till they get back from school. That’s a bummer.
