Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 2 cups vanilla ice cream
- 3/4 cup whole milk
- 5 drops green food coloring (optional but makes it that classic green color)
- 1/4 tsp mint extract (NOT peppermint – just mint)
- 4 crushed mint flavored Oreo’s + extra if wanted crushed around rim of cup (optional)
- whipped cream, chocolate syrup & cherry for top (all optional)
Instructions
- If you wanted to design your cup with crushed cookies around the rim and chocolate design inside cup – do that first & put in the refrigerator to keep cold & set up. I dipped the rim of my cup in the chocolate syrup and then into crushed Oreos. I drizzled the syrup inside the cup and then immediately kept in the refrigerator until I was ready to pour & serve. (Optional)
- Place the ice cream, milk, food coloring and mint extract in a blender.
- Blend until smooth.
- If adding crushed Oreos, put them in & stir with a spoon/spatula. I found if I blended them – we didn’t enjoy getting the small “chunks” of cookie as we enjoyed it. (Optional)
- Pour into two glasses. Top with whipped cream, sprinkles and cherries, then serve. (Added toppings are optional)
Notes
- Best and classic flavor is with MINT extract. NOT peppermint extract.
- Depending on how vibrant you want your green color to be – start with 4-5 drops and then add more as you desire.
- You can do this shake without the Oreo’s for the classic shake. All added toppings to rim, side and top are optional.
