Shamrock Blizzard

Lookout McDonald’s, we’ve created our own delicious Shamrock Blizzard to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day. Thick, rich, delicious, and boozy. Do we really need to twist your arm? For a potent shake, use all whiskey. For a virgin version, use the milk. For something in between use 1/4 cup each: milk and whiskey.

About Maggy Keet

As a New Yorker, I take full advantage of the ever evolving, always exciting restaurant scene. But most days, my “happy place” is found in my tiny Manhattan kitchen where I cook two meals a day. My perfect night is spent listening to NPR, while drinking a glass of wine, and creating a simple, (most often) vegetarian supper which I enjoy with my husband, Andy. In addition to blogging, writing, and planning events, I work full time as a Development Fundraiser.

    Perfect! I’m having St. Patrick’s dinner at my house and have been struggling to come up with a dessert. This sounds nice and refreshing after a heavy meal. Thanks!
