HAPPY ST PATTY'S DAY! Let's celebrate with a wee bit o' ice cream! 

I normally like to list the St Patrick’s Day events around town but it seems like they have all been canceled due to the Coronavirus. :( Instead, I’ll just share a few things that will require minimum social contact. Help stop the spread!

St Patrick’s Day Ice Cream

Salt and Straw

Salt and Straw features many different unique flavors that you won't find in most ice cream shops. 

Monthly, they rotate seasonal flavors relating to the season or a holiday! For instance, see the weirdest flavors we tried last November:

The buttered mashed potatoes and gravy flavor was uh interesting, to say the least.

For March 2020, here is a good flavor to enjoy in celebration of St Patrick’s Day per their website for Los Angeles flavors:

James Coffee & Bourbon We cold brew our favorite roast from James Coffee Co. and blended it with the warm, woodsy, sweetness of Greenbar Distillery Slow Hand Whiskey to make a new spin on coffee ice cream.

Made with James Coffee and Greenbar Distillery Whiskey

Stop everything that you're doing and get to the nearest Salt and Straw! Locations and local flavors can be found: HERE

Afters Ice Cream

McDonalds

The Venice Beach Sign - St Patrick’s Day

The Venice Chamber has been in the holiday spirit, adding elements to the iconic VENICE sign at Pacific St and Windward Ave! The Venice Sign Committee is responsible for the maintenance of the sign and started the Adopt-a-Bulb program.

At Christmas, there were red and green bulbs, for Valentine's Day they added a heart with purple lights. See more holidays on their website, Venice Sign Committee. For St Patrick's Day, they add the "O" to the beginning and change the lights to green! So cute! 

Hope you enjoy your St Patrick's day! :) Be safe out there!
