I made this for my friend Heather who loves the McDonalds Shamrock Shakes. In my opinion this one tasted much better than theirs. Plus you can make it anytime of the year, not just for St. Patricks Day. I used Breyers Vanilla Bean ice cream. You could always sub some whole milk, half and half, or heavy cream for a creamier version of this. You can top it with anything you want, whipped cream, sprinkles, hot fudge, or whatever sounds good.
