Everyone loves a superhero! Are you and the kids excited for the new DreamWorks movie Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie? We cannot wait to see it! We’re going to an early screening so I can share my review with all of you, so be on the lookout for that!
My kids loved the Captain Underpants books, so in celebration of the movie, we’re making Evil Zombie Nerd Milkshakes! Do you remember when the aliens — Zorx, Glax, and Jennifer — pretend to be lunch ladies and serve the whole school the milkshakes? Everyone turns into Evil Zombie Nerds! Now that school is out, it’s the perfect summer treat!
These milkshakes are incredibly easy to make, and your kids are going to love them. Here’s how I like to make them:
To make our Evil Zombie Nerd Milkshakes, they need a bit of zombie blood oozing down the cups. We’ve decided zombie blood is probably green. To make the zombie blood, mix a few drops of neon green food coloring with corn syrup in a baggie and let it refrigerate for about 30 minutes. This way, it will stick to the cups better before you pour in the milkshake.
Just snip off the corner of the baggie and squirt down the inside of the cups to add some delicious zombie blood.
Now to make the milkshakes, I thought mixing vanilla ice cream with Tampico Tropical Punch instead of milk would be a perfect tasty treat. Tampico Tropical Punch is the perfect Zombie Nerd Juice to make our milkshakes. Tampico is already one of the kids’ favorite juice drinks, and they have actually partnered with DreamWorks for the launch of Captain Underpants, introducing a bunch of fun games and giveaways on Facebook. Keep reading to learn more!
Pink milkshakes mixed with the green zombie blood makes a great combination!
Once you’ve made the milkshake, just pour it into the glass. Then, top your milkshakes off with swirls of whipped cream and add a sprinkle or two of some rainbow candy.

The Evil Zombie Nerd Milkshakes sound delicious actually and I will have to make them for the kids. Milkshakes are a great treat for anyone during the hot summer months and making them from a certain theme of a movie, book, etc. is extra fun. Thanks for sharing the recipe.
This milkshake looks like fun to make and even more fun to eat! We saw Captain Underpants the movie last weekend and my kids loved it. They enjoy the books and really looking forward to the movie as well!
This is so fun! My grandkids would enjoy this zombie milkshake! I can make this for them on the weekend. I guess I have to double the ingredients. I am pretty sure they would invite their friends to have some of this zombie nerd milkshake too.
This milkshake looks amazing! I need to try and make this when we have kiddos over.
My family’s cafe has been selling Zombie Nerd milkshakes for the past 7 years! So this is another kind – specifically the evil kind, maybe?
Oh my that sounds like a fun place to eat! This one was inspired by the Evil Zombie Nerd milkshakes from the Captain Underpants books series.
