For those of you who might be thirsty this St. Patrick’s Day and want something with a little more kick than a Shamrock Shake, FM presents three essential cocktails for the occasion:
1. The Irish Coffee
Directions:
St. Patrick’s Day is a marathon, not a sprint, and this suggestion is subtle enough not to draw dirty looks at breakfast. It’s the best part of waking up!
2 1/2 oz strong, hot coffee
1 1/2 oz Irish whiskey
1 tsp sugar
1 oz whipping cream
2. The Green Monster
Directions:
Drink up, whether you’re going to be surrounded by people who still think St. Patrick’s Day is all about the color green or you want a beverage that’s sure to draw a curious glance.
1 ½ oz Blue Curaçao
Stir and fill with orange juice until you like the shade of green
3. The Irish Car Bomb
Directions:
This one will leave you wondering what the hell happened last night (since that’s what St. Patrick’s Day is really about).
12 oz Guinness stout
1/2 shot Bailey’s Irish cream
1/2 shot Jameson Irish whiskey
