25 St. Patricks Day Cocktails That Might Make You Feel Lucky
When you’re planning a party, pick some recipes that you can prepare ahead of time. You want to be able to enjoy the festivities and socialize too. If you’ve got a bigger party, punches and shot recipes do best. If you’ve got a more intimate gathering, go for the specialized single serve cocktail recipes.
Tips For Preparing A Home Bar For Your St. Patty’s Day Celebration
If you’re planning to be at home, instead of the local Irish pub, prep your bar for most of the drinks ahead of time. Keep a variety of glasses on hand – beer mugs to shot glasses – and even have some green food dye. I like to pick 2-3 cocktails that use the same base alcohol and then you don’t have to purchase too much. Two vodka drinks, just different ways, makes it easier on you – the host!
I also keep some snack mixes on hand to munch on with cocktails. An easy Chex Snack Mix or Spiced Mixed Nuts will be delicious as you sip on cocktails.
