BAILEY'S
BREAKFAST
The easy thing would be to
just tilt a little Bailey's Irish
Cream into your morning
coffee, but that won't do if
you want to start the day off
with a buzz. To be safe, you
better mix in something
stronger. Try a Morning
with the Leprechauns: 1.5
ounces of Bailey's, 1 ounce
of Jameson Irish Whiskey, 2
teaspoons of cherry brandy
and 3 ounces of hot or cold
coffee. Or for a sugar rush,
take a shot of French Toast.
Mix together a shot with
one part Bailey's, one part
butterscotch schnapps
and one part DeKuyper
Hot Damn cinnamon
schnapps.
SNEAKING A
SWIG AT LUNCH
Between classes, why not
have a refreshing glass of
lemonade with lunch? To
make Danny's Delight,
first wash a lowball glass
with Angostura bitters
and ice and pour out the
excess. Then mix one part
sweet vermouth, one part
Irish whiskey, one part
Stone's ginger wine and
two parts lemonade. But
if bad weather foils your
plans to sip outside, the
brave among you might
attempt the Gloom Lifter:
2 ounces of whiskey, half
an ounce of lemon juice, a
squeeze of sugar syrup and
half an egg white shaken
and strained. It's sure to
make you feel something, if
maybe not actually better.
5P.M.
REDHEADED
HAPPY HOUR
Now that you're done
with classes or have given
up going to your last one,
it's time to celebrate
with a proper Irish brew.
Smithwick's, an Irish red
ale first produced in a
brewery that began in a
14th century monastery,
is one of Ireland's oldest
beer. Remember when you
order it that the "w" is silent
(say "Smiddicks"). If you'd
rather enjoy something
deeper and darker, go
ahead and get a Guinness
- 2009 marks the 250th
anniversary of the Irish
porter.
8PM.
CELTIC
COCKTAILS
While you're putting on
yourgreentightsorpainting
your chest as part of your
St. Pat's ensemble, sip on
one of these cocktails.
For something simple and
sweet, mix up an Emerald
Cocktail with one part Irish
whiskey, one part melon
liqueur and three parts
ginger ale, poured over ice
in a highball glass, stirred
and garnished with a slice
of lime. To try your hand
at more sophisticated
mixology, serve up some
Irish Riders. Combine an
ounce of whiskey, three
ounces sweet and sour mix
and a quarter ounce triple
sec. Shake with ice, pour
into a martini glass and
drizzle a quarter ounce of
raspberry liqueur on top.
2 A.M.
"IRISH NIGHT" CAP
The Irish Night, a period of
rioting in London during the
Revolution of 1688, hope-
fully won't have a ton in
common with your St. Pat's.
Regardless, you'll need to
wind down at the end of the
night. If your night goes well,
end with the St. Patrick's
Day: equal parts part green
creme de menthe, Green
Chartreuse and Irish whis-
key with a dash of bitters. If
it doesn't, go for the Angry
Irishman: equal parts Bai-
ley's and whiskey oversice.
