Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Shamrock Shake
  1. In a high-speed blender, add 2 cups of vanilla ice cream, ½ cup of whole milk, 4-6 drops of mint extract, and 2-3 drops of green food coloring. Secure the lid tightly and pulse the mixture for about 30 seconds until the ingredients begin to blend together, creating a creamy base for your Shamrock Shake.
  2. Increase the blender speed to medium, and blend for an additional 30 seconds to 1 minute. Watch for the shake to become smooth and frothy, ensuring there are no chunks of ice cream left.
  3. Carefully pour the blended Shamrock Shake into tall glasses. For an extra treat, top each glass with a generous swirl of whipped cream and add festive green sprinkles or a maraschino cherry on top.
  4. Serve immediately after blending for the best taste and texture.
