St. Patrick’s Day has earned the nickname, Amateur Night, due to the over-indulgent drinking habits of a few party goers. Swigs of green beer and green Jello shots make the rounds as simple themed Luck of the Irish sips that go down fast and easy. This holiday step things up a notch by slowing down the rounds and showing a few professional bar skills by mixing The Bäre Fizz. This won’t leave you looking like an amateur mixer! Shake and sip wisely.
