Frequently asked questions – FAQ
How to serve an Oreo Shamrock McFlurry?
You can serve this in two small glasses. It is not usually topped with any whipped cream but it is topped with crushed Oreo cookie pieces. So decide on whatever you like.
Can I use peppermint extract in this minty ice cream treat?
Instead of the mint flavoring you can use a little less peppermint extract, taste and assess if it needs more or if it is good the way it is.
Can I turn this into a Mcdonald’s chocolate Shamrock McFlurry?
Sure! All you have to do is use chocolate ice cream instead. It’s the best thing if you love chocolate and mint together or chocolate shamrock shakes in general. The ultimate indulgence during the month of march!
