Ingredients

Instructions

  • Put ice cream, milk, food coloring, and mint extract in your blender.
  • Blend until contents and color are uniform.
  • Pour mixture into glasses.
  • Top with whipped cream, sprinkles, and a cherry.

Notes

  • For a thinner shake, use more milk. For a thicker shake, use less milk. 
  • For a creamier shake, use heavy cream instead of milk. 
  • I like to use mint extract rather than peppermint extract. 
  • You can add Bailey’s or Creme de Menthe for a fun boozy drink.
