Ingredients in a fast food Shamrock Rock
- Vanilla Soft Serve – Milk, Sugar, Cream, Corn syrup, Natural flavor, Mono and diglycerides, Cellulose gum, Guar gum, Carrageenan, and Vitamin A Palmitate
- Mint Syrup – High fructose corn syrup, Corn syrup, Water, Glycerin, Natural flavor, Xanthan gum, Citric acid, Sodium benzoate (preservative), Yellow 5, and Blue 1.
- Whipped topping ingredients
- Cream
- Nonfat milk
- Milk
- Liquid sugar
- Mono and diglycerides
- Natural flavors
- Carrageenan
- Whipping propellant (nitrous oxide)
If you’ve ever wondered why you feel like crap afterward, I can assure you it definitely had something to do with the gums (known to upset the stomach), artificial dyes, multiple forms of sugar, and carrageenan, a known carcinogen and disrupts the GI tract.
Anyway, that’s a huge difference from the homemade shake I’m sharing today!
Ingredients
1 cup frozen coconut cream frozen into cubes
2 scoops Kachava Matcha all-in-one nutrition shake
3/4 cup vanilla almond milk or milk of choice
2 tbsp pure maple syrup or honey
2 tsp mint extract, or 2-3 fresh mint leaves
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 pinch matcha powder or all natural green natural for deeper green
Process
- For thicker shake freeze coconut cream in a silicone mini muffin pan or ice cube tray. This will add thickness like a traditional milkshake without needing ice or ice cream
-once frozen, blend all shake ingredients together until smooth, scraping the sides as need be
Pour into a glass, top with whipped cream, and a classic cherry, and enjoy!
I love how easy it to just add all of the filling ingredients to a blender, mix, and pour!
Variations for Dietary Preferences
- Kachava Matcha Protein – you can also use vanilla protein here and add 1-2 tsp of fresh matcha powder
- Mint– feel free to omit for a sweeter vanilla/matcha shake
- Coconut cream – feel free to use vanilla ice cream for that traditional milkshake (I like Nadamoo for vegan or Alden’s Organic- both made with clean ingredients and still make this way better for you than a fast food shake!)
I’m sure these Key Lime Pie Cheesecakes will be a hit for you and your guests. I haven’t tried myself quite yet, but I’d love to try these in a lemon variation, too!
