If you are looking for something to put a little jig in your step and are not the Irish Whiskey or Guinness drinking type, may I suggest this delicious and delightfully festive St. Patrick’s Day drink? It’s bright emerald color is perfect for all your Irish gatherings. It packs a wallop of gladness and is guaranteed to make you feel as though you’d found the end of the rainbow. I call it the Lucky Leprechaun.
Gorgeous right? Here’s how to make it. Combine equal parts Captain Morgan’s Spiced Rum, Malibu Coconut Rum, Midori Melon Liquor and Blue Curacao Liquor with a splash of pineapple juice in a cocktail shaker over ice. Shake to combine, then serve in an old-fashioned glass. Or, if you’d prefer, a highball glass filled with ice and garnished with a little wedge of pineapple/cherry and an umbrella. But on St. Patrick’s Day, you are going to probably be opting for the less high maintenance version. Just sayin. You can also make this a shot. Same ingredients. Pour into shot glasses and throw one back shouting “Kiss me I’m Irish!”. Cheers!
Equal Parts:
Blue Curacao liqueur
Midori® melon liqueur
Malibu® coconut rum
Captain Morgan® spiced rum
splash (or two) pineapple juice
Add all ingredients to a cocktail shaker half-filled with ice cubes. Shake and strain into a glass. Serve.
*Side note: With a splash of sweet n’ sour mix, in addition to the pineapple juice, this drink is known as “Liquid Marijuana”.
