St. Patrick's Day gives me the perfect excuse to play with Irish Cream and other green-tinted drinks, and this one is at the top of the list. My husband, who loves anything mint, walked in while I was filming this one and immediately wanted a taste — even though it was 11 a.m. and he was supposed to be being productive.

It's cool, creamy, and tastes like an after-dinner mint grew up and got a lot more fun.
