Baskin-Robbins Shakes Up St. Patrick's Day with Free Samples of its Mint Chip 'n OREO® Cookies Milkshake on Saturday, March 17

CANTON, Mass., March 1, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- This St. Patrick's Day, Baskin-Robbins' guests will find themselves luckier than ever because at participating shops nationwide the brand will be offering a free sample of its Mint Chip 'n OREO® Cookies Milkshake on Saturday, March 17 from 3 p.m. – 7 p.m. Baskin-Robbins struck gold with this milkshake flavor combination, which is made with two of its most popular flavors – Mint Chocolate Chip and OREO® Cookies 'n Cream – blended into a rich, minty treat that guests will love.

The Mint Chip 'n OREO® Cookies Milkshake is just one of Baskin-Robbins' featured milkshake flavor combinations, and with the brand's wide variety of premium ice cream flavors, the milkshake possibilities are endless. Guests are encouraged to become "milkshake mixologists" and create new milkshake flavors all their own by blending two of their favorite ice creams into one tasty shake. They can also share their "milkshake mixology" combinations with Baskin-Robbins on social using the hashtag #BRShakeItUp.

For those looking for additional inspiration, guests can try the following milkshake flavor mash-ups featuring combinations of Baskin-Robbins' famous ice cream flavors:

• Chocolate-Covered Strawberry: World Class® Chocolate and Very Berry Strawberry ice creams come together to mimic this classic treat in every sip.
• Caramel Nut Coffee: Combines two Baskin-Robbins favorites, Jamoca® Almond Fudge and Pralines 'n Cream, into a delicious caramel nut coffee flavored milkshake.
• Cookie Dough and OREO® Cookies: The perfect option for all cookie-lovers in a mash-up of Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough and OREO® Cookies 'n Cream ice cream.

"Baskin-Robbins' milkshakes are classic treats that our guests know and love, but one thing they may not know is that they can combine any two ice cream flavors into a single milkshake to create a whole new flavor combination all their own," said Katy Latimer, Vice President of Culinary Innovation at Dunkin' Brands. "One of the flavor combinations we're most excited about is Mint Chip 'n OREO® Cookies, which is why we can't wait to offer guests a free sample of this festive milkshake on St. Patrick's Day."

Those looking for another way to celebrate St. Patrick's Day can purchase a St. Patrick's Day Cake, decorated with green icing, a vibrant rainbow and a pot of gold. Baskin-Robbins is also offering other sweet, seasonal treats this month including the March Flavor of the Month, OREO® 'n Caramel, which is made with salty caramel ice cream, OREO® cookie pieces and a caramel swirl. This flavor can be enjoyed in a cup, cone or blended into a milkshake or Cappuccino Blast®. 

Additionally, Baskin-Robbins is introducing the new Bunny Stripe Cake, which will be hopping into stores nationwide just in time for Easter. This festive dessert features a classic chocolate bunny atop a pastel striped cake that can be customized with any ice cream flavor and white or chocolate cake.

Finally, ice cream lovers can celebrate the start of spring with Baskin-Robbins' March "Celebrate 31" promotion. On Saturday, March 31, guests can enjoy all regular and kids-sized scoops for $1.50*.
