Sugar Free Shamrock Shake Recipe

Sugar Free Shamrock Shake Recipe served in a mug with a green straw

The shamrock shakes at back at McDonald’s but I wanted a healthier version.

The shamrock shake tastes like a mint chocolate chip ice cream shake!  They are absolutely delicious.  I have always been able to make a healthy version of anything I fall in love with so here’s the McDonald’s Shamrock shake but with a healthy twist and sugar free!  Cheers!

You can make this recipe totally dairy-free by removing the whey protein isolate.  I always try and sneak in protein any chance I get but the recipe tastes amazing with or without it.

This sugar free shamrock shake recipe is totally gluten-free.  It does contain almond milk though.  If you have a nut allergy, feel free to change this ingredient to unsweetened coconut milk with the exact same measurements.  You can also use coconut whipped cream too!

Our friends told us about the Reddit shamrock shake recipe but decided to make it low carb, keto, and sugar free!  We made a perfectly delicious treat that everyone enjoys!!  You won’t even know it’s sugar free.  Promise!

No artificial colors in this recipe!  The green spinach and avocado make the perfect shamrock shake color without the food coloring!  How cool is that?!!  You don’t even taste the spinach either.  In fact, my kids didn’t even know I snuck some spinach in this recipe.  They thought it was an ice cream shake.

If you are wanting an extra creamy sugar free shamrock shake, you can skip the protein powder and add a scoop of your favorite keto vanilla ice cream.  So, so yummy!  I make many different versions of this sugar free shamrock shake and they are all winners.

    Nice recipe, I love how you have adapted it. I did add a few more drops of vanilla and peppermint because I like more intense flavor. I will make this again for sure!
