Actually, the malted milk shake dates from the 1950's and it is quite a tasty treat. In those days, there really were places called Malt Shops. They served Hamburgers, Hot Dogs, Fries, Milk Shakes, and Malted Milk Shakes! Recently, I had a craving for one and found out it is all but impossible to find malt in the stores. The closest think I could find was Chocolate Malted milk mix. (not the same thing!) ( A Malt usually requires one or two teaspoons! ) Malt powder is a light beige colored powder made from extracts of malted barley, and is actually a little bitter in taste if eaten straight out of the can. (I did!) When mixed into a milk shake, it takes on a whole new and wonderful flavor

A Shake is made with ice cream and milk where a malt is made with ice cream, milk and malt.
Lots of places use liquid malt now, instead of the powered.
You can still purchase powered malt in the grocery though.
It's much better and gives the ice cream treat this crystally type texture to it.

A malt is a malted milkshake. Same thing but with malt added.
It's the stuff you find in the middle of the candy called Whoppers. My favorite is a vanilla malt.

malt:
A soda-fountain drink, also called malted, that is a thick, rich mixture of malted-milk powder, milk, ice cream, and a flavoring such as chocolate or vanilla.
milk shake:
We learned that a milk shake is a North American innovation -- a blended combination of milk, ice cream, and flavored syrup, or fruit.
hope this helps.
Burn One All the Way was soda jerk jargon for a chocolate malted with chocolate ice cream; Twist It, Choke It, and Make It Cackle was a chocolate malted with an egg; Shake One in the Hay would get you a strawberry shake; and a White Cow would get you vanilla.

Shake is made with milk and ice cream and any flavoring you might want.
Malt is made the same way only malt is added.

They add a powered malt to give a malt flavor.
