DIY: Healthy Shamrock Shake

I’ve never been one to swing by the popular fast food restaurant to get the infamous shamrock shake…but many people love it. And hey, I’m a fan of mint ice cream, so I get it.

One year, we had a little St. Patrick’s Day get-together with our homeschool coop, and I decided that sounded like a good treat to make for the kids. Of course, I wanted to use real food ingredients to make it!

Luckily, this is fairly easy to do. And boy, were they cute!

DIY Healthy Shamrock Shake

Ingredients:

• 1 cup ice cubes
• 1/2 an avocado
• 1 cup coconut milk
• 1 tsp. vanilla extract
• 1 tsp of Earthley's Greens Powder
• 1 small handful of spinach leaves
• 1 small handful of mint leaves
• Raw honey to taste

Directions:

Step 1: Add all ingredients to a blender.

Step 2: Blend until smooth, adding a bit more milk or honey as needed to reach your desired consistancy and taste.

That’s it! Pour into glasses and top with a sprig of fresh mint or powdered chocolate (Cocoa Calm would be yummy!).

If you want this to have dairy, use whole milk.

If you want it vegan, use maple or date syrup instead of honey.

If you want it to be keto, use your favorite keto sweetener to taste, and feel free to throw in an egg yolk or two for extra creaminess.
