I thought this shake was really yummy! It took a while for me to get the mixture to become a shake consistency, but when I did the shake tasted so good. I added a bit of sweetener just to help with the dominant flavor of the mint which really helped. I think it was just as good as it looked on tv when Ingrid made it.

This smoothie is great. I didn't go on the recipe entirely, in that I used smaller portions and instead of ice cream I used plain yogurt mixed with honey and vanilla extract. This smoothie is deliciously light and refreshing on a spring day. The mint was very subtle. Two thumbs up

My husband and I loved this recipe. It is also beautiful to look at with a bunch of mint specks from the mint leaves. Very frothy and thick.
I might use a little less mint leaves next time, maybe 3/4 of what the recipe calls for.
Thank you Ingrid!
