It’s not often that I eat something at McDonald’s and immediately want to make the copycat version, but when it comes time for a Shammy Shake, I simply can’t resist having one every year. Problem is, those mint shakes are as fattening as they are delicious. So I created this copycat Shamrock Shake recipe … the healthy way!
Now, I’m not going to rave about how this Healthy Shamrock Shake tastes just like the ice cream-packed one you get from McDonald’s, but it is good enough to satisfy that March-time craving.
You can also make this a protein shake by adding a scoop of your favorite brand of vanilla protein powder.
