    Shamrock Shakes with Candy Shamrocks

    Published: Mar 3, '19 · Modified: Feb 14, '23 · By: Beth · This post may contain affiliate links.

    Make copycat Shamrock Shakes topped with a swirl of Minty Whipped Cream and green candy shamrocks to celebrate St. Patrick's Day. These cool refreshing milkshakes can easily be made at home.

    Shamrocks Shakes topped with a swirl of minty whipped cream and a green candy shamrock served with gold polka dot straws .

    You don't have to go to McDonald's to get a shamrock shake. They are so easy to make at home.

    Just blend together the right proportions of ice cream, milk, peppermint extract, and green food coloring to create this thick St. Patrick's Day treat. Then top it with a swirl of mint-flavored whipped cream and a homemade candy shamrock to make it extra festive.

    Shamrock Shakes are only available for a limited time from the fast food chain but you can make these any day of the year.

    A bright green Shamrock Shake topped with a swirl of whipped cream and a green candy shamrock.

    You can find the recipe to make these Copycat Shamrock Shakes at Dixie Crystals. 

    If you want to serve your shamrock shakes in cute edible glasses...
