Cocktails make every holiday feel just a bit more celebratory, and these St. Patrick’s Day drink recipes are no different. We didn’t stop at Irish coffee — there are a ton of recipes that you can whip up with festive ingredients like Irish whiskey, stout beer and mint schnapps. Guinness is certainly synonymous with Irish drinks, and rightfully so; the dark, creamy beer is delicious on its own and mixes beautifully into cocktails, too.

While many of these St. Patrick’s Day cocktails are rich and creamy, a lot of them are vibrant and zesty too. We think you’ll find something for every type of drinker on this list — even the champagne aficionado.

A good starting place? A Half and Half. Half dark stout beer and half pale ale, this festive drink has remained a classic favorite in Irish bars around the world. The crisp ale goes in first, then the smooth stout gets carefully poured in on top to make for a visually special and extra-tasty drink.

Four ingredients and fifteen minutes are all you need to whip up this cold and creamy drink. The darkness of the stout beer mixes perfectly with the caramel ice cream and cool whipped cream. Whether you enjoy it as dessert or a pre-dinner snack, this boozy milkshake is perfect for St. Patrick’s Day.

Moscow mules are a refreshing cocktail at any time of the year, but adding in a splash of whiskey — instead of the traditional vodka — makes this drink particularly satisfying on a cold winter night. Whether you save it for St. Patrick’s Day or enjoy it on a crisp winter weekend, this refreshing drink is packed with zippy flavor.

This grown-up milkshake is the perfect boozy dessert. A beautiful pale green, the minty drink gets its flavor from the ice cream that’s mixed within it. Be sure to splurge on your favorite kind, and the creamier the better!

The legend goes that this drink is named for “It’s a Long Road to Tipperary,” a song that was a popular anthem of Irish soldiers in World War I aching to return home to the Irish countryside. A mix of Irish whiskey, chartreuse, sweet vermouth and some orange makes for a herbal, spicy cocktail that’s strong and flavorful.

There’s nothing cozier on a cold weekend morning than a cup of Irish coffee. A staple at celebratory breakfast or brunch parties, a classic cup of coffee gets spiked with whiskey and topped with a homemade brown sugar whipped topping. It’s creamy, sweet and — depending on the type of whiskey you use — perfectly spicy and smoky.

With just five ingredients this sweet and tart cocktail is a fantastic drink to whip up when you’re short on time. The drink gets its name from the combination of Irish whiskey and Irish lager, which blend beautifully into a creamy, refreshing drink that’s easy to sip throughout the day.

These creamy dreamy cocktails make us feel like we’re on a tropical vacation. Basically a milkshake in a cup, our version gets spiked with vodka and Irish cream liqueur to make for the perfect midday or after dinner cocktail.

This traditional Italian dessert typically consists of a scoop of ice cream topped with hot espresso. However, it takes on an Irish influence in this version that adds in a bit of Irish whiskey. The ice cream melts beautifully under the hot espresso, leaving a creamy dessert that’s just a little bit boozy.

If you’re looking for a morning cocktail but you’re tired of traditional Irish coffee, try this coffee stout instead. The double dose of coffee (in both espresso and liqueur form) as well as sweet black currants bring out the chocolaty best in a stout beer. Serve it in a chilled beer glass to make it even more refreshing.

These fun and festive treats have everything traditional Irish cream does — like coffee, Bailey’s and whipped cream — in a fun and celebratory shape. These boozy jelly shots are perfect for a party or sharing among friends while watching the St. Patrick’s Day parade.

Two simple ingredients are all you need to whip up this vibrant and refreshing drink. Dark stout beer adds richness and depth, while bubbly champagne makes it perfectly zippy and extra celebratory. Ready in just five minutes, it’s delightfully smooth with just the right amount of fizz.

If you’re looking for a fun, festive and kid-friendly way to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day, try mixing up a bright-green bowl of punch. Packed with zesty flavor from lemon-lime Kool-Aid, frozen lemonade and ginger ale, this vibrant punch is fun for kids of all ages. A can of pineapple juice helps add extra sweetness and refreshing fruit flavor.

Guinness and whiskey are two quintessential Irish drinks, so it makes sense to pair them together when celebrating St. Patrick’s Day. Just like a root beer float, this fun and festive drink pairs something fizzy (like a bottle of beer) with something cool and creamy (like a scoop of vanilla ice cream). Irish whiskey adds the perfect amount of spice and sweetness.

If a Black and Tan is your go-to drink, you'll love this simple upgrade which incorporates coffee liqueur — a flavor that perfectly complements the roasted malt notes in stout. A touch of heavy cream rounds things out and gives the finished cocktail just the right amount of richness in every luxurious sip.
