St. Patrick’s Day is less than a week away. Like pretty much every other holiday, I love St. Patrick’s Day. We don’t drink, so we celebrate by embracing the color green in dress and food. Can I be completely honest though? The thought of most green food grosses me out. There are a lot of fun parents out there that will dye their child’s milk green, or make them green eggs for breakfast… I’m not one of them. Sorry, but those are two things that should not be green. This leprechaun punch though? It’s the perfect green St. Patrick’s Day drink that your whole family will love.
