Gave That Blog Suggests More St. Patricks Day Drinks!!

Gave That Blog has a great assortment of green drinks and beverages for St. Patricks Day. (odd how some holidays you get buried in pitchees and others you don’t).
She offers some great drink suggestions as well as an important caveat:
First, two items that will be your tried and true friends when it comes to emerald elixirs– green food coloring and Bailey’s Irish Cream. Heed this warning though. Many green drinks include some sort of mint flavored Schnapps. While delicious, be mindful not to use a heavy hand. Add too much and your drink can be ….turned into a disgusting cocktail reminiscent of Scope mouthwash. \
Word to the wise and a mindful warning!!

Her suggestions included
the wonderfully non-alcoholic Jones Green Apple Soda
Green Pina Colada
Irish Brandy Alexander
Gimlet
The Shamrock and a recommendation for the perfect “bar book” that is a must have for every mixologist.
Gave That also mentioned Food Networks St Patricks special, Simply Stated (Hostess with the Mostess) drink ideas and LA-Story (though not listed as that.. confusing) was included as well.
Check out the GAVE THAT blog for recipes, photos and lots of 411.
