Happy St. Patrick's Day!

What better way to celebrate today than with a good ol' plate of fish and chips and finish off with a shamrock shake. Not sure if it is completely Irish but fun nonetheless!
Very happy that McDonalds locations where I live have brought back the shamrock shake but if yours hasn't I am sharing my beloved shamrock shake recipe that I shared with you all last year. To me, it isn't St. Patrick's day without it! :)

1/4 cup Low Fat Milk

It was tradition when I was a child to go to the neighborhood McDonald's and get a Shamrock shake every St. Patrick's Day. A few years back they discontinued my favorite shake. Since then I have been making my own version.

Ingredients:
2 cups Vanilla Ice Cream
1/4 cup Low Fat Milk
1/4 tsp peppermint extract
Green food coloring

Directions:
In a blender combine milk, ice cream, extract and a few drops of food coloring. Blend to desired consistency. Pour into malt glass. Serve immediately and enjoy!
