1. DIY Shamrock Shake{I was trying to make a really funny pun there} So you take 2 cups of the ice cream, 1 and 1/4 cups of milk, and 1/4 of a teaspoon of the mint extract into a blender. Add green food dye to get the color you want. Feel free to top it off with some whip cream and a cherry! I was planning on making this myself tonight so I could post original photos but I got distracted and never got around to going to the grocery store. Enjoy! 2.
