11 Mar Party for St Patrick

Tuesday 17th March is St Patrick’s Day and if anyone knows how to throw a good party, it’s the Irish. There’s plenty going on and hundreds of ways to celebrate – most of which involve a drink or two!

If you’re in London, you can join the annual St Patrick’s Day Parade on Sunday 15th, starting from Green Park at Midday and making it’s way to Trafalgar Square for the St Patrick’s Day Festival with music, dance, food, films and comedy.

If you’re throwing your own party, we’ve pulled together a few great cocktail ideas to give your bash a real Irish feel.

Emerald Isle Cocktail

This gin-based cocktail has a blend of herbal and citrus notes with a touch of mint.

The result is one very green cocktail. Check it out at About Food.

The Irish Flag

This stunning layered shooter cocktail in the colours of the Irish flag looks so amazing that we wouldn’t want to spoil it by drinking it…

 
 
 
 
 
…OK, so maybe that’s not completely true!
