Classic Mashup!! Easy Shamrock Frappuccino

To celebrate the Irish day, we are doing a MASHUP of the famous McDonalds Shamrock Shake and a Starbucks Frappuccino :)

With the classic flavour of the shake and making it into a lighter and crunchier texture of a frappuccino.

For adults, you can add a splash of Creme de Menthe to booze it up a little.

You can top of the drink with the classic maraschino cherry or just like us, with a few fresh mint leaves and shamrock shaped cookies :)
