Macaron frappe
We can never have enough of Le 15's macarons, and to make matters better (or worse, if you're counting calories), Pooja Dhingra's patisserie has come up with Macaron Frappe, where you pick a macaron of your choice that gets blitzed into a frappe. While this is available only at their Oshiwara outlet right now, try their cupcakes and choux pastries, at all the outlets, that come in milkshake flavours!
