Shamrock Shake-St. Patrick’s Day Milkshake Recipe

Today’s recipe is something special for those of us who like sweets.

It’s the biggest, craziest, milkshake I could come up with and because of St. Patrick’s Day coming up on Friday, I made it St. Patrick’s day themed by adding green ice cream and rainbow sprinkles (because that’s all you need to make something St.Patrick’s Day themed right?)

Have you heard of a “Freakshake” before? They are becoming a new trend. Basically you take a milkshake and give it steroids. If you want to see some amazing and crazy milkshakes do a search on Pinterest for “Freakshake”. People are coming up with the wildest milkshake varieties that you can imagine.

For this recipe, I used my husband’s beer stein because it was the biggest glass in the house and added all the yummy stuff to it that I could think up.

This Shamrock shake is so sweet I recommend sharing it with a friend. There is no way I could eat this giant thing by myself so I let my three year old have some and it was too much for her too, haha.

Watch the video to see how it's made!

Add the mint ice cream, green food coloring and milk to the blender and blend for just a few seconds until it is mixed.

Green food coloring is added to white icing.

Spread the icing on the outer rim of the glass and then stick on marshmallows and other sweet candies.

Drizzle chocolate sauce inside the glass before adding the milkshake.

Pour the milkshake into the glass, top with whipped cream, sprinkles and yummy treats.

Gnome Tip: Use plastic chopsticks to secure your mini donuts and pierce mini snickers bars into the top of them to hide the chopstick.
