Bob O’Schneider here, taking you on another whiskey journey of discovery. St. Patrick’s Day is on Sunday, and I think I must help you properly celebrate this important religious holiday. Not that I’m 100% Irish, but I am about 1/4th from my mother’s side of the house, not to mention 0% Catholic. Never mind all that, on March 17th, everyone is Irish. Many people drink green beer on St. Paddy’s Day. I can’t think of anything more horrid. Well, maybe I can. Staying sober on March 17th is sacrilege, although I must since my liver has celebrated too many practice St. Patrick's Days. If you are a poser Irishman on St. Paddy’s Day like me, at least do it with style and class. I suggest an Irish Mule, a variation of the Moscow Mule. The Moscow mule base is Vodka, which means it has no complexity or flavor as a foundation, whereas Irish Whiskey has plenty of complexity and taste. Just a note, one doesn’t have to use Irish Whiskey to make the drink. Only be advised you better hope the Christians are wrong about a place called Hell if you use any other type of Whiskey on March 17th. Tradition says serving the drink in a copper beer mug is proper, but any glass will do. Here are the ingredients: • 10 mint leaves, muddled • 2 shots of Jameson Irish Whiskey • ¾ cup ginger beer • ½ lime, juiced • 1 splash of lime sparkling water (optional) To make the cocktail, first muddle the leaves in the mug, releasing the mint oils. Drop in three ice cubes and add two shots of Irish Whiskey. Pour in the lime juice and top it off with the ginger beer. Garnish the drink with a slice of lime and put in a mint sprig. The International Association of Man Rules gives Irish mules an exception against drinking a cocktail through a straw as unmanly. Your masculinity is intact by using a straw in this drink. #stpatricksday
