St Patrick’s Day Cocktails

Well St Patrick’s Day is just around the corner and it’s time to think about how you’re going to celebrate and most importantly what are you going to be drinking?

Now some people just think that St Patrick’s Day means Guinness, but we know that it is a great opportunity to drink a range of different St Patrick’s Day Cocktails or St Patrick’s Day Shots.

A new cocktail (to me anyway) that I was told about recently was The Ugly Leprechaun. Now I haven’t tried this yet, but the recipe came into my inbox and I thought I would share it with you.

1.5 oz Vodka
0.5 oz Irish Whiskey
0.5 oz Melon Liqueur
0.25 oz fresh lime juice
0.5 oz simple syrup
2 oz Kiwi puree

Now to make this ‘interesting’ sounding cocktail you simply place all of the ingredients into a shaker with ice, shake well and then strain into a cocktail glass. This cocktail certainly sounds great – I’ll let you know after I’ve sampled it.

For more cocktails that I have tried don’t forget to check out my St Patrick’s Day Cocktails page and I have a new page dedicated to some of the delicious St Patrick’s Day Shots and Shooters that are available.

Have fun and paint the town green (on St Patrick’s Day NOT the day after!).
