Shake It Up

Why not come back to the blog today to celebrate & commemorate something oddly special....?

Apparently, the McDonald's 'Shamrock Shake' is this bizarrely elusive fast-food leprechaun milkshake that only comes out for St. Patrick's Day, and in recent years is even regulated to select McDonald's venues.



It's a big deal, people....

So if you're looking to fill this fix for yourself at home (which I highly suggest), try this surprisingly easy little recipe!

INGREDIENTS:
3 cups high quality vanilla ice cream
1 3/4 cups skim milk
1/2 teaspoon peppermint extract
1-3 drops green food coloring
DIRECTIONS:
Blend all ingredients together until smooth, thick and cr-aaazy delicious. 
Top with homemade whipped cream and green sugar sprinkles, if desired.

Cheers,
Whitney
