Oh but wait it gets better!  How to make a "Drunk Shamrock Shake!"

INGREDIENTS

2 1/2 cups vanilla ice cream
1/4 cup milk (we used whole, but lowfat would work too)
3 oz. Jameson Irish whiskey (two shots or 6 Tbsp.)
1/4 tsp. mint extract (don't use "peppermint" extract, which tastes like toothpaste)
4-6 drops green + 2 drops yellow food coloring

for mint syrup:

1 small bunch fresh mint
1 cup sugar
1 cup water

for garnish:

whipped cream
maraschino cherries
fun drinking straws
