“How are we supposed to know St. Patrick’s day is coming up without the Shamrock Shake?” --Jim Gaffigan

Our family will use any excuse to eat ice cream. Since St. Patrick’s Day is soon approaching, I researched some Minty "Shamrock" Shake recipes on the internet. There were McDonald’s copycat recipes, people’s own concoctions, and even a totally healthy version that uses spinach and avocados. We looked at lots of  recipes to come up with our own version.

Hershey Family Shamrock Shake:

  • 2 cups vanilla ice cream
  • 1-1/2 cups milk
  • 2 tsp mint (not peppermint) extract
  • whipped cream
  • green sugar sprinkles

Blend ice cream, milk, and mint extract. Poor into cups. Top with whipped cream and sprinkles. Enjoy!

Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
