I remember even before McDonald’s had these amazingly festive treats, my mom would make green milkshakes with my brother and I on St. Patrick’s day. Every sip of a Shamrock Shake tastes like a bit of my childhood and brings back such sweet memories.
Gavin is at the age where he loves bright colored things (especially if they are messy) Â so I figured it would be a fun project to make some of these festive milkshakes to enjoy with the family. Â It only calls for four ingredients and it’s so easy so perfect to do with kids!
What You’ll Need:
- 2 cups vanilla icecream
- 1 1/4 cups milk (can use whole or low-fat)
- 1/2 teaspoon mint extract
- 3 drops green food coloring
Directions: Â Combine all ingredients into a blender on low. Â Serve immediately in a glass and top with whipped cream.
