If you don’t want to bother making a Guinness Stout Cake to conclude your St. Patrick’s Day meal, whip up some fun
with these boozy, delicious, and colorful shakes. Ideally a malted milk mixer
is the best option, but if you have a bullet blender, it will do. The beauty of
these, besides their delicious taste, is that they can be made ahead and stored
in the freezer up to and including the whipped cream topping and mini chocolate
chips. Because of the alcohol content they don’t freeze solid, so you can store
them in the freezer until you’re ready to serve them. I stored mine in the
freezer with the straws in them so there was no delay whatsoever in getting
them to my curious guests. Keep in mind that these shakes are adults only; enjoy responsibly!
Shamrock Shakes
1 ounce Irish cream Liqueur
1 ounce Crème de Menthe
1/2 ounce white Crème de cacao
2 to 3 scoops vanilla ice cream
1 ounce Irish cream Liqueur
1 ounce Crème de Menthe
1/2 ounce white Crème de cacao
2 to 3 scoops vanilla ice cream
Whipped Cream, for garnish
Mini chocolate chips, for garnish
Place all ingredients, except garnishes, into a blender and mix until creamy. Depending upon the size of your ice cream scoop, you may need to add a bit more ice cream. Serve in small glasses topped with a spritz of whipped cream and some mini chocolate chips. Makes 2.

What lucky guests you have! Did they like them? That is a great tip on freezing ahead of time.
I'd love to be a guest at one of your dinner parties, Pattie!! Yummmmm!!
Those are sort of like a grasshopper drink from back in the 60's. Yummy! Cute straws.
wow, i'll have a couple.
Pattie, I would never have thought to make these in advance and put them in the freezer! Love it! I usually wear myself out entertaining, and this would save a lot of wear and tear on the hostess!
