Time-honoured Treats and Traditions
While Baileys is in its element on St Patrick’s day, it’s worth giving a nod to the more traditional Irish drinks that have long formed a part of this festive occasion. Beer for example, especially the iconic Guinness have long taken centre stage, and of courses Irish whiskey holds its own, with classics like the comforting Irish Coffee – a delightful blend of hot coffee, Irish whiskey, and a creamy crown.
More recently, Irish Cream liqueurs (with beloved Baileys at the helm) have become an integral part of modern St. Patrick's Day celebrations. These creamy additions bring a touch of sweetness and tasty luxury to both hot and cold beverages, making them a crowd-pleaser for those who enjoy a hint of indulgence.
