Follow The Directions

01

Step
2 mins

In a high-powered blender, combine the chilled milk, fresh spinach, and unwrapped peppermint candies. (2 minutes)

02

Step
2 mins

Blend on high speed until the mixture is completely smooth and the spinach is fully incorporated, ensuring no leafy pieces remain. (3 minutes)

03

Step
3 mins

Add the slightly softened vanilla ice cream to the blender, working in batches to prevent overfilling. (1 minute)

04

Step

Continue to blend until the shake reaches a thick, creamy consistency and a uniform, vibrant green color. (2 minutes)

05

Step

Pour into chilled glasses and serve immediately. Garnish with a sprig of fresh mint or a dusting of cocoa powder, if desired.

For an extra minty kick, add a few drops of peppermint extract to the blender.
Adjust the amount of ice cream and milk to achieve your preferred thickness and sweetness.
If you don't have peppermint candies, you can substitute with a few drops of peppermint oil, adding it gradually to taste.
For a vegan version, use plant-based milk and ice cream alternatives.

    Be careful not to over-blend, or the shake can become too thin.

    I used almond milk and it turned out great!

    This shake is so much better than the McDonald's version! Not as artificial tasting.

  • Deangelo Weber

    I was skeptical about the spinach, but it doesn't affect the taste at all! My kids loved it.
