Like most people I lead a busy life and sometimes I just don’t want to be interrupted while I’m in the middle of something on my Mac.
On my iPhone I can use the Control Center to toggle Do Not Disturb on and off whenever I want.
On my Mac I checked in System Preferences > Notifications and I can set it on a schedule, but there’s no option to show a Do Not Disturb icon in the Menu Bar.
How can I easily toggle Do Not Disturb on/off on my Mac without going into System Preferences?
NOTE: A Terminal command does not count as being able to easily toggle DND on/off.

Actually, there is a Menu Bar icon, of sorts.
To toggle Do Not Disturb you can just hold the option key down while you click on the Notification Centre icon at top right of your Menu Bar.
Doing this will instantly make any visible notifications disappear and grey out the icon. You can still click on it to manually show/hide the Notification Centre whenever you want, but Do Not Disturb stays active.
NOTE: Do Not Disturb will stay active until the next day (when it becomes inactive again) or until you hold the option key down again while you click on the Notification Centre icon.
This is perfect.

Complementing Monomeeth's excellent answer, there's also a toggle button available in the Notification Center in macOS. This is sort of the shortcut (albeit a bit lengthy) you are looking for.
Click on the Notification Center button in the far right on the Menu bar to reveal the Notification Center UI.
Now with the Today tab selected, scroll down to reveal the Do Not Disturb toggle.
Additionally, if you have Hey Siri enabled, you can simply ask Siri to toggle Do Not Disturb.
Great info, but I imagine that talking out loud to your computer to put it in DND mode isn't something that gets a lot of use!
