What would St. Patrick's Day be without green beer? Here's how to make it—with and without food dye.

To complete this How-To you will need:

A light-colored beer
Frosty beer mugs
Green food coloring or blue curaçao liqueur

Step 1: Chill beer mugs

Chill some 16-ounce beer mugs in the freezer.

Step 2: Add food coloring

When the glasses are nice and frosty, add a few drops of green food coloring to the bottom of each.

Step 3: Substitute curaçao

If you'd prefer not to use food dye, add of shot of blue curaçao liquor to each mug instead of the coloring.

Tip: Be sure to add the coloring or the liquor before you pour the beer, or else you'll have to stir it.

Step 4: Add beer

Pour light-colored ale into the chilled mug, since beer that's dark to start will just get darker when dyed. Add more food coloring if necessary.

Step 5: Raise your glass

Raise your glass and offer this traditional Irish blessing: "May the road rise to meet you; May the wind be always at your back; May the sun shine warm upon your face; And rains fall soft upon your field; And until we meet again; May God hold you in the hollow of His hand."

@ZackMorris93 Beer can be Irish without being green, honey. Im also Irish, moved to the states, though. Im not stupid, nor a prick, or a cock head. Nice attempts at insults, I suppose.

I'm not going to argue with you, anyway. It was immature of me to post anyway, and for that I am sorry.

Good day! ^^

@MCloud009 yeah, it isn't traditional you stupid prick. I'm irish and nobody over here drinks green fucking beer you cock head.
