Peppermint Oreo Milkshake
This Peppermint Oreo Milkshake is the perfect festive treat for the holidays. Made with creamy vanilla ice cream, sweet Oreos, and a candy cane, you will want to make one of these all year long!
Mmmm… peppermint. It’s one of my favorite tastes and smells of the holidays. A few years ago one of my students gave me a Twisted Peppermint candle from Bath and Body Works for Christmas. I fell in love with it instantly! Now every year I buy a small Twisted Peppermint candle and use it all through December. It just makes my whole house smell like Christmas. 🙂 I also have a Balsam and Cedar candle from Yankee Candle, but the peppermint one will always be my favorite. Do you have a favorite scent that you use for the holidays?
I love the way peppermint smells, but I also love how it tastes! This Peppermint Oreo Milkshake is an idea that’s been floating around in my brain for the past few weeks and this weekend I finally made it a reality! Then today I was talking to my sister on the phone about it, and she mentioned Chick-fil-a’s Peppermint Milkshake! Good gracious do I miss Chick-fil-a. I had forgotten that they have a milkshake like this! But y’all, this is pretty much as good as what my memory recalls from Chick-fil-a. Plus this one has OREOS! Case closed. 😉
My son and I pretty much slurped this baby down in a couple of minutes tops. To be honest, I didn’t even want to share! But I did. Thankfully we still have plenty of the ingredients left over, so more of these are on the horizon! And as a side note, I made this using Winter Oreos with the red filling. It gave the milkshake a nice pinkish tint! But you could definitely use regular Oreos, and add a little red food coloring if you want the pink/red color. 🙂

Are you an Oreo Lover? Then you might like these, too!
Looks and sounds so delicious and perfect for Christmas!
What a delicious drink to enjoy during the holidays! I adore peppermint and Oreos so this is perfect for me!
Ah, thank you so much for this! I am always looking for good drinks in the morning before my school day begins and this is so good! I know in my heart that I should limit how many I make but it’s just so good mhm–
I tried using the mint Oreos over the holiday special and think it tastes wonderful with the candy canes! My roommates hate me for always using all our milk on this drink but after one sip they insisted I make it for them as well! I think it tastes best cold but room temperature doesn’t bother me a bit, So quick and simple it’s the perfect drink for the holiday so thank you for sharing it!
yummy i love these milkshakes.
