Copycat Shamrock Shake

March and enthusiastic St. Patrick's Day celebrations bring an avalanche of green meals and beverages.  

However, there is one green beverage that a cult of followers craves: the Shamrock Shake. Tall, minty, frosty, creamy delight that is only available for about a month at McDonald's.  

But why restrict this indulgence? With just a few high-quality ingredients, you can prepare your own Shamrock Shake at home any day of the year.  

Since the 1970s, McDonald's has served this limited-time shake with its distinctive green color as a special treat to honor St. Patrick's Day from mid-February to mid-March.  

Its limited run has raised its status, and many people look forward to it throughout the year. In 2021, the Shamrock Shake will mark its 50th (!!!) anniversary.  

We've simplified the list to just a few ingredients, but the end result is a creamy texture with a balanced mint flavor and a mound of whipped cream.  

Shakes are the dessert you can drink, but you don't have to limit them to after dinner!  

This bright, minty shake would also be great for a spring lunch, or if you add alcohol to the recipe, you could offer it at your next adults-only brunch.
