# DIY: Healthy Shamrock Shake

**Published:** 2025-03-12

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](https://earthley.com/ingredients/avocado-oil)
- 1 cup [coconut milk](https://earthley.com/ingredients/coconut-milk)
- 1 tsp. [vanilla ](https://earthley.com/ingredients/vanilla-beans)extract
- 1 tsp of [**Earthley's Greens Powder**](https://earthley.com/products/greens-powder)

- 1 small handful of [mint ](https://earthley.com/ingredients/peppermint-leaf)leaves
- [Raw honey](https://earthley.com/ingredients/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 **](https://earthley.com/products/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.*
