Fun fact: the exclusively fourth dimension I was belatedly to schoolhouse EVER inwards my flat schoolhouse career was i yr on St. Patrick’s Day, when my Dad took me out for Irish Gaelic breakfast earlier schoolhouse (as was our tradition!)


We got to the schoolhouse JUST every bit they were locking the front end doors – if the doors were locked when you lot arrived, that meant you lot were late.


I was SO MAD because the clock read 7:59 a.m. every bit I was tugging on the locked doors. So, I was deemed tardy. And, when you’re late, you lot possess got to sign a log inwards the role giving the excuse for your tardiness — in addition to then my dad in addition to I wrote inwards the schoolhouse tardy log that “Stephanie was belatedly because she was out at the Irish Gaelic pub”


Best. Excuse. Ever.

Back to the milk tremble – The older I get, the less I tin dismiss handgrip these over-the-top sugary treats. And man, are Shamrock Shakes over the top! I don’t desire to yell whatsoever names, but a lot of the store-bought/pre-made shakes similar this out at that topographic point possess got anywhere from 50 to 115 grams of saccharide in addition to 600 – 800 calories.


Now – I’m non proverb it’s bad to splurge i time inwards a land – but that is a LOT of sugar! Having that much saccharide at i time soooo does non brand my torso experience happy.


I decided to come upward up amongst my ain Shamrock Shake recipe this yr – it’s got vogue less saccharide (about 15-30 grams, depending on what type of H2O ice cream you lot use), it’s vogue lower inwards calories, in addition to it’s got a super sneaky well for you lot element – kale!

I know, I know – you’re thinking “Man, why is this daughter trying to teach me to ruin a SHAKE amongst KALE???” The truth is – you lot can’t fifty-fifty enjoin it’s inwards there. I totally tricked Grant amongst these shakes (hehe, sorry!). He’s a huge skeptic when it comes to adding hush-hush well for you lot ingredients to things – in addition to he couldn’t enjoin at that topographic point was kale inwards this!


It is possible to possess got a creamy in addition to delicious milk tremble that yet tastes great, without spending the residuum of the twenty-four hr menses inwards a saccharide coma!


Did I cite – it takes virtually v minutes to throw this together? It’s quick, easy, healthier – in addition to super festive! If you’re into spiked drinks, I bet this could last practiced amongst a hint of Bailey’s!
