As shamrocks and pots of gold have begun to pop-up everywhere once again in anticipation of St. Patrick’s Day, here are a few cocktails to make at home!
This St. Patrick’s Day, skip the leprechaun and rainbow chasing. The only chasing needed is a sip of liquid gold before the parade with Hornitos Tequila’s Never Too Early or a refreshing Green Tea-Quila cocktail that’s tasty enough to turn anyone green with envy. When you need a pick-me-up at the end of the day, indulge in the Brewed Awakenings, inspired by the look of the Irish beer we all know and love, Guinness, and featuring coffee liqueur. These perfectly crafted cocktails will keep you feeling lucky at any time of the year.
