Frisky Whisky Cocktail

St. Patrick's day is a great time to enjoy the smooth, sweet flavor of Irish whiskey. While there are a variety of ways to celebrate St. Patrick's day, my favorite way to celebrate involves a great cocktail made by my local barkeep. One of the cocktails that I plan on enjoying is the Frisky Whisky cocktail, made with Michael Collins Irish whiskey, Barenjager honey liqueur and orange juice. Ask your local barkeep for one or try this one at home.

Ingredients:

• 1 oz. Michael Collins Irish whiskey
• 1 oz. Bärenjäger Honey Liqueur
• 1 oz. orange juice
• 1/4 oz. simple syrup

1. In a mixing glass, add first 4 ingredients. Top with ice.
2. Add bitters, top with a Boston shaker tin.
3. Shake vigorously for 30 seconds.
4. Strain into a chilled martini glass. Serve.
