your title made me think of the SNL skit that spoofs a Food Network show; it was called "I Drink Your Milkshake!"
Never been to NYC, but I have found Denny's shakes to be uniformly good across the country and they were still made with real ice cream last time I had one. Of course there's the problem of the rest of the food, but I guess you could get it to go? (Make sure you ask them to put the leftovers in the malt can in a separate container - when I worked there, if the customer didn't ask for it the server could drink it.)

In addition to their famous burgers, I hear Shake Shack (in Madison Square Park) has awesome milkshakes. Just be warned, the lines are loooooong.

I drool like Pavlov's dog when someone mentions Shake Shack. Their shakes are truly excellent. The lines are long but worth every minute. There is a "B" line that is shorter but does not serve hot food or the traditional shake, but does serve concretes, floats, custards, and sundaes (I think).

My brain suddenly went, "All your shake are belong to us".

Shake Shack is the best overall, but Lexington is a nice honest shake. When my parents moved to the UES 25 years ago I was missing our old family home and went to the Lex and drank milkshakes until I felt better.

There's a Coldstone just around the corner from my house. I pass it every day to and from work. To and from the grocery store. To and from everywhere. It doesn't help that there are 3 of them in a very small radius. I generally get a chocolate-cinnamon shake, strawberry, or chocolate-graham cracker. When we lived back east there was a place called Bruster's. I lived on them after sinus surgery. My tabby cat began to look forward to my husband coming home with the milkshake. She would follow him to wherever I was, and sit and wait for her part to go in a dish. Strawberry is her favorite.

Doesn't Ronnybrook have a counter now inside Chelsea Market? I'd start there and then work my way around to Stand, Shake Shack, Shopsin's, brgr...

I like the shakes from BRGR (but not the burgers). I had a bad experience at Stand..don't get the milkshake with the pistachios, haha. Shopsin's can be good; when I had an avocado shake there, it was AWESOME! Shake Shack is also good. I had a pretty good shake from Williamsburger, but the burger was full of fail. :(

I'm a Boston gal stuck down below the Mason-Dixon in Atlanta...I still have visions and dreams of Brigham's Mocha Frappes (yeah, we call 'em Frappes up in MA...a bit thicker than a shake, and slap yo' mamma good...) Good lord, Brighams made great Frappes.

I like the black and white shake from Island Burgers & Shakes. Shake Shack's was pretty good. I love the toasted marshmallow shake from Stand. It's a dessert in liquid form.
