It’s that point of 12 months and I’m excited to share this McDonald’s copy cat Shamrock Shake recipe! Lol. Personally the shamrock shake is certainly one of my favorites. I really like the flavour of all issues mint. We do a whole lot of little cooking and craft tasks at dwelling with our sons across the extra minor holidays like St. Patrick’s Day so having a home made shamrock shake recipe available is the way in which to go.

You may gown this up with crushed Oreos or Fortunate Appeal marshmallows. Or for a extra grownup model add a shot or two of espresso. I are likely to make these with my children I actually go for it with the inexperienced meals coloring (ha!) however if you need a extra delicate colour and even no colour in any respect that’s simple to regulate.

Methods to make a Shamrock Shake

It’s a bit of difficult to measure ice cream. I take advantage of a glass measuring cup however actually you possibly can merely eyeball it into your blender. Lean towards an excessive amount of vs too little for a thicker milkshake.

In a blender add the ice cream, milk, extract and inexperienced meals coloring. Mix till effectively mixed.

Pour into your cup and prime with whipped cream.

Suggestions Notes + Substitutions

• I like to make use of Blue Bunny Gentle Vanilla Flavored Frozen Dairy Dessert on this recipe however any vanilla ice cream will work! We have a tendency to purchase this sort and the feel is softer and makes the ultimate milkshake a bit of extra ethereal / foamy and feels much more just like the McDonald’s model to me.
• Mint extract is extra genuine for this recipe but when you have already got peppermint extract (perhaps from Christmas baking) that’s fantastic too. They do style barely completely different however each make an exquisite Shamrock shake.
• I used 10 drops of inexperienced meals dye to get the colourful colour you see in these images. Use much less if you need a extra delicate colour or skip the meals dye altogether.
• Make your individual whipped cream or used a canned model for a extra genuine copy cat expertise. 🙂
• If you wish to make this dairy free you should use dairy free ice cream, milk and whipped cream.
• These cups with dome lids are nice for a celebration, in any other case any 12 oz cup will do.
