The Irish Red

Hot REUben Dip

View Recipe

Hy-Vee’s Reuben brat with sauerkraut is a satisfying dipper for cheesy fondue, which plays well with the acidic pineapple and nutty, vanilla notes of the whiskey in the cocktail.

Perfect Pairing

The dry, smoky flavor of oak-barrel-aged whiskey in this Irish take on a Negroni acts as a counterpoint to the cheesy richness of an Irish-American Reuben dip with corned beef.

The LUCKY FROG

Irish Fondue

Everyone’s Irish on St. Patrick’s Day, as the saying goes. The holiday began as a reverential day in Ireland honoring the country’s patron saint, but in the United States, immigrants used the day to celebrate their heritage. They incorporated their tradition of drinking at wakes (it was a day honoring St. Patrick’s death, after all) into the festivities they were establishing in their new country. The combination proved to be a hit, and cities across the nation began holding celebrations that included parades, Irish food and, of course, lots of drinking. Use these pairings that incorporate traditional Irish ingredients at your next St. Patrick’s Day party and sláinte! Or cheers to your health!

This cocktail lightens the heavy mouthfeel of Guinness and adds hints of marzipan with fizzy sparkling wine, which complements the salty, sweet Guinness-spiked brownies.
