We love copycat recipes! Especially the frozen ones TGIF Frozen Chocolate Mudslide Copycat ,

Every February for the last 20 years Chad says: "Guess what is out?  Shamrock Shakes at McDonald's!!!"

Wearing the excited smile of a 6-year-old that just got his first bike, we drive into the drive-thru and he orders his Shamrock Shake.

This ritual has occurred ever since I have known him.  Over the last couple of years the shake was not as impressive as it used to be;  who knows why; formula change, taste buds change, whatever the reason.

One Saturday in February, a few years ago, Chad is working on Munchkins playground.  Uncle Happy and Pop Pop have been helping him get this together, but my man has been slaving out there for a week.

Munchkin and I ran out to do some errands and I thought I would do something nice and get Chad a Shamrock Shake from McDonald's, then I remembered that the last one he had didn't sit well with him.

How to Make a Shamrock Shake

So, I decided to make my own.  I know with good ingredients I can make a shake that would put McD's to shame!!!  And I was right, I started with good ice cream and that is just the start. My shake is amazingly thick and creamy and oh so minty and delicious!!!  Here is my version (that is much better than the original in my opinion) hope you enjoy, and have a fantastic St Patrick's Day!

Helpful Tips to Make McDonald's Shamrock Shake Copycat:

  • For the creamiest shake, go with the richest ice cream you can buy. The icier the ice cream the icier the shake.
  • You can substitute 2% milk in the shake (if that is all you have), but I wouldn't use fat free.
  • You can use gel food coloring (my fav) if you have it or liquid will work just fine.
  • You want to be sure to use Mint extract. Peppermint extract is purely peppermint extract and has a higher menthol content. Mint extract is a combination of peppermint and spearmint, it has a completely different flavor.

What you will need to Make McDonald's Shamrock Shake Copycat:

  • Blender – You can use any blender, but I absolutely love this one! I use it for ice cream, smoothies, soups, my tomato sauce and naturally this milk shake.
  • Green Food Coloring - gel or liquid
  • Mint Extract - remember peppermint is for red/pink treats (candy canes), mint is for the green ones (mint chocolate chip ice cream and mojitos).

Enjoy!

prep time: 5 MINScook time: total time: 5 mins

Ingredients

  • 6 cups good vanilla ice cream (I used Blue Bell homemade vanilla)
  • 1 1/2 cups whole milk

  2. Fill 1 cup of heavy whipping cream in a tall bowl and use an electric mixer with a whisk attachment to whip until peaks begin to form.  Add 1 tablespoon powdered sugar and whip until stiff peaks form.
