St Patty’s Day is almost here and I decided to make a family friendly drink this year that everyone would love. I knew I wanted something green and something Irish inspired. After some trial and error,  so I came up with this festive Lucky Irish Cream and Pistachio Milkshake ! Creamy pistachio ice cream is blended with milk and poured into a chilled glass drizzled with chocolate Irish Cream flavored syrup then topped with homemade Irish cream whipped cream and fun sprinkles! Lucky for you I’m sharing the recipe below!

If you’ve never made homemade whipped cream before, you are missing out!
It only takes a couple ingredients and it is hands down better than any store bought kind!

 Prepare the Irish Cream whipped cream by mixing together the heavy cream
 and 1/4 cup Irish Cream syrup.

Mix on high in a chilled mixing bowl until creamy and fluffy. Chill until ready to serve.
 I love this creamy gelato!
The color is very light though so you can try a different brand of ice cream or even add a few drops of green food coloring if you want the festive green color more pronounced,
 I am a big fan of Torani syrups for flavoring my coffee drinks.
I found this Irish Cream flavor at Kroger.
 In a small bowl mix together chocolate syrup and remaining 1/2 tsp Irish Cream syrup.

Drizzle the inside of a large chilled milkshake glass with flavored chocolate syrup.
Add 1 cup milk to a blender.
Add pistachio ice cream. I added about 6-7 scoops.
Blend until smooth.

Pour into the glass.
Top with Irish Cream whipped cream and add green sprinkles and a straw.
I also drizzle on more chocolate syrup because more chocolate is always a good thing, right?
Happy St Patty’s week!

🍓 Today is National Pick Strawberries Day. Going to local farms and picking fresh produce is one of our favorite family traditions. We were lucky enough to go strawberry picking at @eckertfarms last weekend. It was the biggest farm we have ever been to and quite a memorable experience! We left with a basket full of fresh juicy berries, strawberry cider and pastries from the market, and soaking wet clothes (but smiles on our faces). I'll share more about the hail storm that hit us in the middle of the field later... ⛈️😨 #nationalpickstrawberriesday #farmfresh  #strawberry #eckerts #farmtotable #farmlife #illinois #springtime #familyfun #eckertfarms #eckertsmemories

❤️This week marks 2 years since our beloved cocker spaniel Dylan passed away. I created this free printable Rainbow Bridge poem on the blog in honor of Dylan. It can be customized with your pet's photo and would be a  cherished framed gift for someone who has lost a special pet. #rainbowbridge #doglove #dogheaven #rip #mydog  #neverforgotten #rainbowbridge🌈
