St. Patrick’s Day is on March 17, and there’s no better time to get your green on with a couple of tasty cocktails.
The cultural and religious festival is also widely celebrated by the Irish diaspora around the world, especially in Great Britain, Canada, the United States, Argentina, Australia, and New Zealand. Actually the Feast of Saint Patrick is celebrated in more countries than any other national festival.
Celebrations generally involve public parades and festivals with Irish traditional music sessions, formal gatherings, and of course the wearing of green attire or shamrocks. Christians also attend church services, and the Lenten restrictions on eating and drinking alcohol are lifted for the day. In fact, an integral part of the celebration is drinking alcohol.
According to traditions, alcohol like whiskey, beer or cider is drank as a toast to St Patrick, to Ireland, or to those present as good luck ritual.
For the same reason, we want you to be part of the fiesta! We created a list with a few of our favorite St. Patrick’s Day-inspired cocktail recipes. From certified cucumber-flavored organic vodka like Prairie Organic Spirits to the new flavor lineup from Redd's Apple Ale, which includes the limited Redd's Peach Ale; find them all below.
