It’s time to celebrate Saint Patrick’s Day, and what better way to do so than by preparing a drink or dessert to match the green shamrocks of the street parades?
St. Patrick, the patron saint of Ireland, died on March 17th in the year 461. Known for converting the pagans of the country into Christianity, he’s now remembered and celebrated around the world with the color green, that represents the Roman Catholic population of Ireland.
To join the celebrations with everyone in the OG Family honoring their Irish heritage, we’ve prepared three delicious and healthy green recipes for today.
