Keto Shamrock Shake Recipe
This year for St. Patrick’s day I thought it would be fun to recreate the not-so-healthy but ever-so-delicious Shamrock Shake.

Scale
Ingredients
- 1 scoop vanilla whey protein powder (your favorite keto-friendly brand.)
- 1/2 ripe avocado, cubed
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup almond milk (no sugar added)
- 1/8 teaspoon peppermint extract
- A handful of ice cubes
- Optional: 2 drops of Green food coloring
- Optional: Whipped cream
- Optional: Garnish with a Cherry (1 carb), or strawberry (0.5 carbs) for the traditional red hat. You could even use a mint leaf as I’ve done here.
Instructions
- In a blender, combine all the Shamrock Shake ingredients except ice.
- Blend until smooth, then add ice until you reach your desired consistency.
- Add green food coloring if you’re feeling extra festive, and top the Shamrock Shake with some homemade whipped cream and a single cherry or strawberry for a treat.
Notes
You might think it’s a good idea to try making a Shamrock Shake with coconut cream for the fats, but coconut won’t work here, it’s a little too overpowering, so I would stick to the heavy whipping cream and sugar-free almond milk. The ice cubes aren’t an exact science and vary in sizes, so just add them until it reaches the consistency you enjoy.
