The part of the milkshake that is in the upper portion of the straw is exposed to a warmer environment than the bottom of the straw. Since the bottom remains cold longer it continues to plug the lower end of the straw while the upper portion of milkshake begins to expand in volume as it thaws. Since the bottom is plugged and the capacity of the straw remains constant, the increased volume of fluid spills out of the top of the straw.

Why does juice rise up the straw on a hot day?

As you have more than likely taken the juice from the fridge, when you inserted the straw you have created a way the juice can escape. (usually by you sucking on the straw) But as the juice heats up, it also expands slightly causing pressure to build up in the juice container and forcing it to go up the straw to find a way out.
