St Patrick’s Day: Easy Drink Recipes You Can Make At Home
According to Today, St Patrick’s Day began as a religious holiday to honor St. Patrick. “St. Patrick was born in Britain at the end of the 4th century. After enduring various trials, his mission became teaching people of Ireland about Christianity until his death on March 17, 461.” Over time it has become a day for celebrating all these related to Irish culture. And let’s be real, it’s also a day where people drink a lot of Irish alcohol.
If you want to try to make some of those beverages at home, here are some recipes:
Irish Mule
The Irish mule is a play on the trendy Moscow Mule beverage that is usually made with vodka. The ingredients include Irish whiskey, ginger beer, lime, and an optional copper mug.
