St. Patrick's Day Mint Shakes image

Milk shakes, like other simple concoctions, are only as good as their ingredients, so use high-quality ice cream and vanilla extract. Combining peppermint extract and vanilla ice cream gives the drink an extra-refreshing, minty flavor you wouldn't get from using regular mint chip ice cream.

This shake is a great way to use up leftover mint leaves. I had some leftover from making mojitos and they worked perfectly in this shake.

I didn't have any ice cream on hand, so I used frozen yogurt instead. It worked well and the shake was still delicious.

I had some trouble finding mint extract at the store. I ended up using peppermint extract instead and it worked just fine.

This shake was a bit too thick for my liking. I would have preferred it with more milk.

This shake was a little too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with less sugar.
