If your St. Patrick’s Day celebration needs a boost this year, to follow are several ways to enjoy the holiday with friends and family.
1) Beef for all budgets: Synonymous with St. Patrick’s Day, corned beef is a staple for this holiday. Hy-Vee carries options to serve this tasty tradition, from grab-and-go corned beef and cabbage that’s ready to eat, to the perfect cut of meat for simmering in the slow cooker, and even packets of pre-sliced corned beef for a quick and easy meal.
2) Fresh-baked bread: The Hy-Vee bakery’s signature rye bread adds the perfect flavor whether it’s part of a corned beef sandwich or served on the side. From marble to pumpernickel, Hy-Vee offers several varieties of rye for all tastebuds to enjoy.
3) Blarney Stones are back: These peanut cake squares are a St. Patrick’s Day favorite at the Hy-Vee bakery. Make it easy on yourself and pick up these pre-baked treats for you and your guests to enjoy.
4) Mix up a drink: Put a twist on the Old-Fashioned and make it an Irish Old-Fashioned with Finagren’s Irish Whiskey, with a fruity-yet-dry medium body, available at Hy-Vee Wine and Spirits.
5) Make it green: What’s St. Patrick’s Day without drinking a green beer or eating a colorful cupcake? Hy-Vee stores feature several food coloring options, including varieties without artificial dyes, to ensure your celebration has the appropriate color scheme.
