It’s Shamrock Shake season and I love the cool flavor of this popular minty shake but not the necessarily all the calories that are in it!  I decided to lighten up this yummy dessert shake with a few simple swaps like using a low fat/ no sugar added vanilla ice cream and unsweetened vanilla almond milk and I promise, you won’t miss a thing!
