By Craig Schrolucke | Friday, March 14, 2008, 07:15 PM

Many party revilers this weekend will be eyeing the beers of Irish decent along with a pint or two of tinted green beer. But for those of us that find the green beer idea a little off putting we suggest a green or Irish themed cocktail concoction.

Here are of couple suggestions:

Envy and Other Sins

1 part Sweet Vermouth
1 part Green Chartreuse
1 part Irish Whiskey

Blarney Stone

1 part Green Chartreuse
1 part Green Mint Liqueur
2 parts Irish Whiskey

Chill a cocktail glass with ice or in the freezer. Pour green chartreuse, green mint liqueur and irish whiskey into a shaker. Fill the shaker with ice cubes and shake it until the shaker is very cold. Empty the cocktail glass from ice and water. Strain the drink into the cocktail glass.

Deceiver

1 part Green Chartreuse
2 parts Plymouth Gin
1 dash Green Mint Liqueur

Chill a cocktail glass with ice or in the freezer. Pour green chartreuse and plymouth gin into a shaker. Fill the shaker with ice cubes and shake it until the shaker is very cold. Empty the cocktail glass from ice and water. Strain the drink into the cocktail glass. absolut.com

Irish Mul

Do you have a green favorite? Be sure to share your favorite before St.Patty’s day tis over.

Green Chartreuse “With over 130 different herbal extracts, this very strong spirit is hard to copy. It is made by French monks since the 18th century, and only these know the secret recipe. Green Chartreuse is a popular shooter among madmen, but works well in drinks too.” absolut.com
