Anybody old enough to remember Shamrock Shakes from McDonald's? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

McDonald's use to sell these green mint flavored shakes called Shamrock shakes around St. Patty's Day. They always did it in the 70's and early 80's, then they disappeared from the planet. They were deeeelicious!

I think only a few select places make them. They don't sell them here in NY.

LOL! That website is pretty funny. Yes I remember these, and no I have never had them. I wouldn't touch them with a ten foot pole.

I remember those Shamrock Shakes, and yes, i did have one. I thought it was pretty good.

It had a pepperminty flavor to them.

The last time i remember seeing them was back in 1994 or 95 i believe.

Yea they had them here a few years back ( I believe in the late 90's) but it was only for a few weeks. They are great.
