Party Panache, Lucky Shots

May the luck of the Irish be with ye this week!

And if you make these lucky shots, your happiness is guaranteed!

The ingredients are so simple you will do a jig  💃

Make things extra festive by decorating the shot glasses with a green sparkling sugar rim

Dipping the rims in a little simple syrup {sugar water} makes the decorative sugar stay in place

Fill ’em up!

Serve them on a rainbow  🌈

Add a festive St. Pat’s message  ☘️

Add a Shamrock Pot for extra luck

A utensil holder keeps a rainbow of colored pens and pencils at my fingertips

for sketching a rainbow upon a whim

A rainbow is sure to put a smile on your face

and so will a Lucky Shot!
