it's cream, like for your coffee. I think it's actually half milk and half cream, hence the half and half name.

Its half cream and half milk I think. DO you have

creamer for coffee... just mix that with some milk or

just use all creamer for a richer shake

Half and Half is in the milk section. and is a milk product. kind of

like whipping cream, but not as heavy. hope that helps.
