From our family to yours, Happy St. Patty’s Day! We hope you enjoy these non-alcoholic drinks, it’s so wonderful to have choices the whole family can enjoy!
These look great!! Thanks for sharing, I am so bad with imagination of things that I will give pop or coffee but this would be great for my guests and hubby:)
I’m glad you like them Doris, I finally decided to share my preferred recipes because people were emailing asking. I’m not actually super-creative either…
Love that shake recipe – I love minty drinks!
it’s delicious!
How interesting. Green is my favorite color. In fact Forest Green and Emerald Green. That is why when St. Patty’s comes around, I do not mind dressing up in green. Blessings to you Julie.
Happy St. Patrick’s day!!

The shamrock shake recipe is really appealing to me! Great recipes! Thanks for sharing!

That green grape glacier looks very yummy! :) :)
I never understood the excessive drinking on St Paddy’s Day. The party Punch sounds like a modern twist on something my grandmom used to make
