INGREDIENTS
While Irish whiskey is a classic St. Patrick's Day staple, this cocktail puts a refreshing spin on it. The lemonade and Blue Curaçao create a lighter, more approachable drink, perfect for those who want to celebrate without feeling
weighed down.
Of course, the green color is essential for any St. Patrick's Day drink. In Irish folklore, green is associated with luck, spring, and the lush landscapes of Ireland. So, each sip of this vibrant cocktail is a little toast to good fortune.
