Shamrock Mint Milkshakes

Prep Time 5 minutes
Total Time 5 minutes
Makes 4 shakes

Ingredients

  • 4 cups mint chocolate chip ice cream
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • Whipped cream for topping
  • Chocolate shavings or mint leaves for garnish
  • Optional: 2 tablespoons Baileys Irish Cream per glass added after blending

Instructions

  • Add the ice cream and milk to a blender and blend on low, then high, for about 30 seconds, until thick and smooth but still pourable, adding a splash more milk if it will not move through the blades.
  • Pour the shake into 4 tall glasses.
  • If making the adult version, stir 2 tablespoons of Baileys into each glass individually rather than blending it into the whole batch.
  • Top each glass with a swirl of whipped cream.
  • Finish with chocolate shavings or a mint leaf and serve right away, the shake softens quickly at room temperature.

Good to Know

Keep a bottle of Baileys on the side instead of blending it in, that way the same pitcher works for everyone and each person can spike their own glass.
