Shamrock Shake Recipe
Report
Shamrock Shake from The Food Charlatan. A smooth, creamy, minty milkshake, in an Elphaba-worthy shade of green, topped with whipped cream and a maraschino cherry just because. It's quite possibly the best thing to come out of McDonald's besides the Big Mac. This recipe is even better than the McDonald's version, because hello, we start with real hand-scooped ice cream. It literally takes 5 minutes. Save your drive thru money! Don't forget to top it off with some Homemade Whipped Cream.

Instructions
- Let your vanilla ice cream sit out for 5 minutes or so, it's easier to scoop.
- Add 1/2 cup whole milk to a blender.
- Add 1/2 teaspoon peppermint extract and 10 drops green food coloring.
- Scoop about 3 cups ice cream into the blender. I measured this, but you can eyeball it.
- Blend on low until the ice cream and milk start to come together, then increase the speed to high. Blend until smooth. You might need to stop and use a spatula to break up the ice cream or scrape the sides.
- Add more milk or more ice cream to get the consistency you like! Add extra peppermint extract only a drop at a time; a little goes a long way.
- Pour into 3 glasses. Top with Homemade Whipped Cream and a maraschino cherry! Enjoy right away!
- Storage: don't store. Sip up.
Notes
- OREO OPTION: Oreos are always an option, right? If you want to make this an Oreo Shamrock Shake, add about 8-10 Oreos before blending.
