The Shamrock Shake was launched for the first time nationally in 1970 by Connecticut McDonald’s Owner and Operator Hal Rosen. He initially created the mint shake to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day. But, its sales from the drink ended up helping to build the very first Ronald McDonald House to keep families close during difficult times. It all happened specifically after the 3-year-old daughter of a Philadelphia Eagles player was being treated for Leukemia in 1974.
Since then, the signature green shake got immense fan-base, and more than 60 million have been sold. McDonald’s has also released a couple of special twists on the St. Patty’s Day drink over the years.
“Every year customers eagerly await the return of the Shamrock Shake — and over the past five decades, getting a sip of this green legend has become a seasonal tradition for many,” said McDonald’s Archivist Mike Bullington.point 195 | “The shake’s unique history and widespread passion for this menu item have qualified the Shamrock Shake as a beloved cultural icon.point 310 |
We feel lucky to have such dedicated Shamrock fanatics, and hope to continue the legacy of this legendary treat for many more years to come.point 116 | ”point 119 | 1
