Syrian Fruit Cocktail in Anaheim's Little Arabia

Anyone who grew up with Levantine juice shops will recognize the name. At Choco Fruit, the Syrian Fruit Cocktail means mixed fresh fruit chunks in a strawberry milkshake, topped with whipped cream, drizzled with condensed milk and honey, and garnished with more fruit. That strawberry milkshake base is what sets it apart from the Lebanese version, which uses a fruit smoothie instead, so this one is creamier and rounder. It sits somewhere between a drink and a dessert: you spoon out the fruit and cream, then finish what is left in the cup. It is a good order for a hot afternoon, for anyone missing a juice-bar treat from back home, or for a friend trying the style for the first time.
