It was cool and refreshing, like mint chocolate chip ice cream in liquid form. I had no problem consuming it through a thick metal straw. (I\u2019m trying to reduce my plastic consumption\u2014even though it\u2019s served in a plastic cup.)<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display:block; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Dairy-Queen-Mint-Chip-Shake-Closeup.jpeg?resize=600%2C600&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Dairy Queen Mint Chip Shake Closeup\" title=\"Dairy Queen Mint Chip Shake Closeup.jpeg\" border=\"0\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The \u201cchocolate cone coating\u201d description is a little confusing, but I think it means it\u2019s the same chocolate they use for dipped cones. It reminded me of the chocolate pieces in any off-brand mint chocolate chip ice cream, only thinner. The chocolate pieces are crunchy but not hard. I think it\u2019s semisweet chocolate, but I\u2019m no cocoa connoisseur.<\/p>\n<p>I have no complaints, but even if you have never been to Dairy Queen, you have had this shake before. I really enjoyed it, but it\u2019s no different from a mint shake or ice cream anywhere else.<\/p>\n<h3>Anything else you need to know?<\/h3>\n<p>The green coloring is more subdued than in the advertisements. Isn\u2019t a vibrant green the whole point of mint shakes at this time of year?<\/p>\n<h3>Conclusion:<\/h3>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display:block; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Dairy-Queen-Mint-Chip-Shake-Top.jpeg?resize=600%2C600&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Dairy Queen Mint Chip Shake Top\" title=\"Dairy Queen Mint Chip Shake Top.jpeg\" border=\"0\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" \/><\/p>\n<p>If you want a mint shake and Dairy Queen is the closest, go for it.
