Mint-Chocolate Shamrock Shake

Everyone’s looking to slurp up something mint-chocolatey in March, a month when we’re all Irish! So I whipped up this goodie for St. Paddy’s Day.
Yield: 2 servings
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Total Time: 5 minutes

Ingredients
 

  • 2 ripe bananas, peeled and frozen
  • ¼ cup cocoa powder
  • ½ to ¾ cup almond milk, or milk of choice
  • 1 drop mint extract, it’s very strong
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ cup ice cubes

Optional toppers:

  • Aerated whipped cream*, mint leaves, cocoa powder
Ingredient Details to Know
*If you are dairy-free, leave out the whipped cream or try a dairy-free whipped topping.

Instructions
 

  • Break the frozen bananas into large pieces. Combine all the ingredients in a blender and puree until smooth and frothy. Add a splash of extra milk if you have trouble blending. Pour into glasses and garnish with optional toppings.
