Mint is a flavor that people get passionate about; either they love it or they hate it. We love mint, and we obviously love chocolate, so a mint chocolate chip combo is what we wanted to play around with here. Now, depending on how much you love mint, you’ve got some options here: you can make this recipe as is, including the fresh mint leaves, which really give it extra flavor, or you can leave the leaves out. A delicious dessert at any time of year (it feels like a really wintry ingredient when you drink it cold like this) and impossible to screw up, this milkshake is a winner!
