It’s almost time for the wearin’ o’ the green, or, in other words, St. Patrick’s Day. My boys love mint chocolate chip ice cream so I decided to make them a Lucky Leprechaun Minty Milkshake as a treat for St. Paddy’s Day. Take my word when I say they loved them.

My boys come by their love of mint chocolate chip ice cream honestly. It’s my absolute favorite flavor too. Making this milkshake seemed natural. I’m usually not partial to the green mint chip but for St. Patrick’s Day I definitely wanted green because of the holiday. I used Baskin Robbins but you can use your favorite brand. If it’s not green add a couple of drops of green food coloring when you add the ingredients to the blender.  I used my soda fountain ice cream soda glasses to serve the shake. Serving the milkshakes in Mason jars would be fun too.

I hope you’ll visit the links from my blogger friends at the bottom of this post. They are sharing more recipes with Irish flair.
