And on St Patrick’s Day everybody is! So celebrate this day of Irish blessings with a cocktail that is as beautiful as it is delicious. Everybody’s Irish contains the illusive Chartreuse, an herbal liqueur. Chartreuse is one of the oldest and most mysterious spirits still available. This “Elixir of Long Life” was said to be created in 1605 by Peres Chartreux. Drink is straight or mix with Irish whiskey and crème de mint for a special Irish treat. This will send you off to sweet green dreams of Ireland’s rolling hillsides.
