What do you think of my Shamrock Shake Recipe? Have you tried the real ones?
We just made these. I would recommend using a full teaspoon of extract as they weren’t very minty. I like that they have less sugar than McDonald’s shakes which are so sweet I don’t like them. This one is closer to the shamrock shakes I remember as a kid before McDonalds poisoned them with too much sugar and corn syrup.
Thanks for sharing your tip about extra mint extract Nate!
Recipe sounds good. This website, however, will never be on my computer again. It’s so ad heavy that it is practically freezing my computer. Seems like it could be ad/malware to me. Be careful here.
Hi there,
Sorry you had that experience. My website is scanned 24/7 for malware. I try to maintain a good balance of content/advertising.
