Making milkshakes really dramatic has become a trend and several Iowa restaurants have jumped on board.

This may be a trend to blame Instagram for but you've seen the huge milkshakes by now. They look really extra, topped with just about half of a cake and/or half of a Chips-Ahoy container and containing likely enough sugar to keep you totally awake for 72 hours.

But not all great milkshakes are like that. Best Things Iowa and Only In Your State looked at some of the best places to get milkshakes in Iowa to satisfy your sweet tooth this summer. In no particular ranking, here are the places you can check out for milkshakes.
