Three Drinks to Enjoy at Home this St Patrick's Day

Unfortunately, with the pubs still shut and the 'stay at home' message still in place, all St Patrick's Day celebrations will be taking place at home this year. So we've rounded up the best drinks you can make!

Baileys Irish Floats

Ingredients:

• Vanilla Ice Cream
• Guiness
• Bailey’s Irish Liqueur
• Your choice of syrup (we recommend chocolate)

Method:

1.) Using a tall sundae glass, scoop three scoops of ice cream into the glass.

2.) Fill the glass with 200ml of Guiness, followed up with 110ml of Baileys.

3) Finish off with a drizzle of your chosen syrup.

Green Beer

It wouldn’t be St Patrick’s Day without some greenery added into the day, so how about dying your beer green in celebration of Ireland’s most famous national holiday?! This simple recipe is easy, takes next to no time and more importantly doesn’t ruin your beer!

Ingredients:

• Green food dye
• Beer

Method:

Simply take your can, bottle, or glass of beer and add 2-3 drops of green food dye. If you want a darker colour then add 4-6 drops to your drink

Lucky Charms Shots

Fancy tasting the luck of the Irish this St Patrick’s Day. Then why not put together this sugary cereal concoction that will satisfy your sweet tooth cravings!

Ingredients:

• Full fat milk
• Lucky Charms cereal
• Bailey’s Irish Liqueur
• Multi-coloured sprinkles
• Icing sugar frosting
• Shot glasses

Method:

1.) Fill a bowl with Lucky Charms cereal and full fat milk and leave in the fridge for 10 minutes until the milk has turned colour and absorbed the sugar out of the cereal.

2.) Remove from the fridge and strain out the cereal, pouring the leftover milk into a jug.

3.) Add 230ml of Bailey's to the milk and mix.

4.) Take 8 colourful marshmallows from the Lucky Charms cereal box and set aside for later.

5.) Crush the non-marshmallow cereal pieces and mix in with your sprinkles that need to be played out on a plate.

6.) Line the outer rim of your shot glasses with icing sugar frosting and then dip this into the cereal and sprinkle mixture.

7.) Pour your Bailey’s and milk mixture into each shot glass and top with 2 marshmallows that you set aside earlier.
