Milkshakes: You're a charmer

Sensitive people typically warm to soft, creamy foods, according to studies. And since no ice cream style is slushier than a shake, your fondness for this frothy dessert suggests you're bighearted and empathetic. Though introspective, you're also sociable and love hanging out with friends and family over old-fashioned milkshakes because, to you, few things bring people closer than savoring a sweet treat together.

Cups: You're an ambitious go-getter

Your cup of cold stuff complements your on-the-go lifestyle and reflects your foresight—after all, the confines of your container prevent any stray splotches from sabotaging your best summer outfits. In fact, according to studies at Chicago’s Smell & Taste Treatment and Research Foundation, folks who prefer a cup tend to be go-getters. Prepared for any eventuality, youre a natural multitasker.
