Around this time of year some people are looking forward to celebrating the day long holiday of drinking that is Saint Patricks Day. If you are one of those people, then you will definitely want to check out this festive coloured cocktail that packs incredible flavour and Irish spirit.

Irish Whiskey has its own unique flavour and texture compared to other Whiskeys, a lot of people find it’s a lot smoother and easier to drink so it makes for a great choice to use in a drink. In this case it pairs really well with a combination of sweet and sour ingredients that tone down the abrasive nature of the Whiskey but without removing its light pleasant flavour. Of course, the green food colouring just adds the festive aesthetic colour to the drink to complete it.

If you are looking for a good drink outside of your usual pint of beer this Saint Patricks day, then give the Emerald Isle a go. It certainly carries its own special flavour and drinking experience. Here is how it is made.
