Not sure why those who are not impressed with Irish food have weighed in on this topic.   There is NOT much I don't like about Irish food.   We have enjoyed this cocktail with our St. Patricks Day dinner for years.  Not for the faint of heart!  LOL!

 

Irish Wake

Fill with ice.
1/4 cup (2 shots) Bacardi 151.
1/4 cup (2 shots) Bacardi Gold.
1/4 cup (2 shots) Curaco Blue.
16 oz. Fresh squeezed orange juice.

Combine the above and garnish with a green maraschino cherry. 

 

This is McQuires recipe which is served in a quart jar.   It is a beautiful green color and there should be a designated driver!

I enjoy Irish Soda Bread but never think to make it.  @butterfly123 's corned beef and sauerkraut casserole looks good but my DH would never eat sauerkraut.  Once a year, I give myself permission to have a milkshake....a Shamrock Shake. It's the only Irish thing I do.

I so adore corn beef and cabbage, St. Patirck's Day is such a fun day.   But first we must all celebrate March 14th.  Just save a slice for March 17th!!
