Copycat McDonald’s Oreo Shamrock McFlurry

I have always been a huge fan of McDonald’s Shamrock McFlurries, to me, it was love at first taste. I think the first season they were out I had 2-3 a week, but then tragedy hit and they removed them from the menu because the season was over. Over several months, I spent time perfecting the perfect Copycat McDonald’s Oreo Shamrock McFlurry and I am so excited to share this recipe with you! It tastes just like the McDonald’s versions. You can enjoy it all year long! 

My kids love to enjoy these on St. Patrick’s Day along with our Air Fryer Irish Soda Bread and my famous Slow Cooker Corned Beef and Cabbage. 

Ingredients:

• Mint extract ½ tsp
• Food coloring ¼ tsp
• Water 3 tbsp
• Oreo cookies 3

• Corn syrup 1/3 cup
• Sugar ¼ cup

How to Make McDonald’s Oreo Shamrock McFlurry

4. Cool it.

Tips Tricks and FAQs

• If you prefer you can swap out the corn syrup for agave nectar. 
• Be sure you use real mint extract and not peppermint extract. This is one mistake many people will make. 
• If you prefer you can make this without green food coloring, of course it will no longer be green, but will still have all the mint flavor. Extra green food color can be added to make it an even brighter green color. 

Storage

You will want to enjoy this right away. I don’t recommend storing it, as it will alter the taste and consistency. Thankfully, they are really easy to make. 

How do you prevent your Oreo Shamrock McFlurry from melting quickly?

One of the secrets to keeping your McFlurry from melting quickly is to place your glass in the freezer for about 1 hour prior to making it. This allows the glass to stay cold and prevents your McFlurry from melting as quickly.
