Time for a Guinness… a Guinness float! This St. Patrick’s Day, Get drunk and fat at the same time. This is the first year I will be missing out on The St. Patty’s Open… a round of golf dressed like a leprechaun including heavy drinking… Sorry, Mike. And sorry reader, I digress.

The simple method
- 2 scoops of vanilla ice cream
- 1 pint/can of Guinness
Scoop the ice cream into a frosty beer mug. Pour on the Guinness!

The Black Velvet
Guinness and Cider.
