Although St. Patrick's Day is on a Monday this year, we know many of you will be partying throughout the weekend. Here are some classier cocktails to entertain your guests.
Serves 1 Ingredients: Method: Pour the Guinness Extra Stout into a clean/polished champagne flute. Top up the glass with the champagne, being careful to ensure there is no overspill. The Guinness Black Velvet should have a good dark color with a frothy head, resembling a Pint of Guinness.
Serves 1 Ingredients: Method: This powerful little shot will bring you straight back to the peat bogs! Add all ingredients with ice to a shaker tin, shake until chilled and strain into a shot glass, drop a cherry to the bottom of the drink. Serves 1 Ingredients: Method: Muddle grapefruit with elderflower cordial. Add crushed ice and mix.
Re-top with crushed ice and garnish with a grapefruit wedge and some fresh mint leaves for a kick of green. Ingredients: Naturally, the classic option if you want a hot drink would be a hot whiskey , but some among us may be too whiskey'd out after Friday's festivities. This slightly more mellow variation uses cognac instead.
Add all liquids to a heat proof mug, stir to dissolve honey, garnish with a cinnamon stick. Sign up to IrishCentral's newsletter to stay up-to-date with everything Irish!.
