Copycat Shamrock Shake

Simply Recipes

Note: If using gel-based food dye, 1 lentil-sized drop will sufficiently color both milk shakes. Water-based food dye is not as concentrated. If using water-based or liquid food coloring, you may need to use approximately 1 teaspoon depending on the desired color.

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups vanilla ice cream

• 3/4 cup whole milk

• 1 drop green gel food coloring (see note)

• 1/2 teaspoon mint extract

• For garnish

• Whipped cream (store bought or make your own)

• 1 tablespoon green sprinkles

• 2 maraschino cherries

Method

1. Make the shake: In a blender, combine vanilla ice cream, milk, and food coloring. Blend until smooth.
   

2. Divide it into two glasses: Pour the milkshake mixture evenly between two glasses.
   

3. Dress it up and serve: Top with whipped cream, sprinkles, and a cherry. Straws encouraged but not required.
