As the end of February quickly approaches that means St. Patrick’s Day is right around the corner. Since I’m part Irish, St. Patrick’s Day has always been a big deal and a great time for my family to celebrate our Irish heritage. What better way to celebrate than with a festive, naturally green, Dairy Free Shamrock Shake! The homemade version is easy to make and is a great way to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day….no need for weird ingredients, additives, preservatives, or lots of sugar.
If you aren’t dairy free, heavy cream can also be used in place of the coconut milk. And don’t be afraid of the avocado it adds creaminess and green color without making the shake taste like avocado.
