Ideas Notes + Substitutions

• I like to make use of Blue Bunny Delicate Vanilla Flavored Frozen Dairy Dessert on this recipe however any vanilla ice cream will work! We have a tendency to purchase this type and the feel is softer and makes the ultimate milkshake a bit extra ethereal / foamy and feels much more just like the McDonald’s model to me.
• Mint extract is extra genuine for this recipe but when you have already got peppermint extract (perhaps from Christmas baking) that’s effective too. They do style barely totally different however each make a beautiful Shamrock shake.
• I used 10 drops of inexperienced meals dye to get the colourful coloration you see in these images. Use much less if you need a extra delicate coloration or skip the meals dye altogether.
• Make your individual whipped cream or used a canned model for a extra genuine copy cat expertise. 🙂
• If you wish to make this dairy free you should utilize dairy free ice cream, milk and whipped cream.
• These cups with dome lids are nice for a celebration, in any other case any 12 oz cup will do.
