Description

The Drunken Leprechaun is a St. Patrick’s Day cocktail that was created by Rebecca Hubbel and was first published on her blog Sugar & Soul. The recipe was made as an Irish-inspired variation of the Screwdriver that uses blended Irish whiskey as the base spirit instead of vodka and adds blue curaçao to the mix to turn the recipe bright green. Our version also includes Green Chartreuse for a bit more complexity.
