Frequently Asked Questions

How can I make this kid-friendly?
If you want a kid-friendly version, just remove the Kahlua from the ingredients when making.

Can I make this in advance?
No, this needs to be made right before serving or the ice cream will melt.

Can I use regular food coloring?
While you can use regular food coloring, I suggest using the gel food coloring. Gel food coloring gives a more vibrant green color.

How to Make A Grinch Milkshake

In a medium shallow dish, melt the White Chocolate Almond Bark in the Microwave for 30 seconds, stopping half way to stir.  (Depending on your microwave, time may vary, just continue until the chocolate is completely melted) 

Place the Sprinkles in a shallow dish, and dip the Milkshake Glass in the melted White Chocolate, and immediately in the Sprinkle Mix, to rim the Glass.  Place the Glass in the freezer to set the Chocolate.

In a large pitcher, place the Milk, Kahlua, Ice Cream, and Green Food Coloring Gel, and stir with a Wooden Spoon until well mixed, and thick. 

Remove the Glass from the freezer, and pour the Milkshake into the Glass, filling the Glass. 

Add a generous amount of the Whipped Cream on top of the Milkshake, and place the Red Grinch hearts all over the Whipped cream, and place a Maraschino Cherry on top. 

Add a festive straw.

Serve and Enjoy!
