About Shamrock Shake

This group is for all of the Shamrock Shake lovers out there. Every March the Shamrock Shake gets harder and harder to find. Please post your Shamrock Shake photos and the locations of where you've found them...

The Shamrock Shake is a seasonal dessert sold at select McDonald's fast-food franchises during March, to commemorate St. Patrick's Day. Essentially, the Shamrock Shake is a standard Vanilla shake, flavored with mint extract and dyed green.

Shamrock Shakes were widely available across the United States until the early 1990s. According to the McDonald's website, Shamrock Shakes are now sold exclusively in Ireland, although they are still available at select American franchises during the month of March. The Shamrock Shake typically appears in U.S. McDonald's franchises in mid-February.

During the 1980s, McDonald's used the Uncle O'Grimacey character to market Shamrock Shakes. However, he has been phased out.
