Our first drink of St Patrick’s Day on the 17th March is the Nutty Irishman; this is a shooter with three layers comprising green creme de menthe, Irish cream and Grand Marnier which form the colours of the Irish flag.

St Patrick’s Day, Ireland’s Patron Saints Day, is today, 17th March, and we’ll be doing a few Irish themed cocktails. I promise not all of them will be green!

4th #cocktail of #FridayNightCocktails on the 11th March: Bramble
The Bramble is a cocktail created by Dick Bradsell in 1980s London, England. Best described as a spring cocktail, the Bramble brings together dry gin, lemon juice, sugar syrup, crème de mûre (blackberry liqueur), and crushed ice. Bradsell also suggests finishing off the cocktail with some fresh red fruits and a slice of lemon.
I opted to only garnish with a blackberry.

The lemon drop martini is a cousin to the Orange Martini and sibling to the Limoncello Martini.

2nd #cocktail of #FridayNightCocktails on the 11th March: Apple Pie Mimosa
It feels like the wrong month for this one as I think it’s more of an autumnal drink; an apple pie mimosa.

A tasty cherry variation of our Chocolate Martini which seemed to go down well.
