St. Patrick’s Day Brunch

Last Updated on 08/18/2021 by Inside Tailgating

Tomorrow is when friends and family gather to listen to bagpipes, drink endless booze and eat green eggs.   Whether you’re heading down to watch the parade or to a local pub crawl, I have some tasty libations to start your day off right!

Instead of  beer cocktails or a list of green libations, we thought it may be fun to post some St. Patrick’s Day inspired “Top o’ the Morning” brunch cocktails! Face it, we all need a stiff drink in the morning to deal with all the craziness that comes with this major drinking holiday…
