National Peppermint Patty Day

Happy National Peppermint Patty Day!

Ya, we hadn’t heard of it before either. Actually after searching the internet high and low, we couldn’t even find when February 11 was declared National Peppermint Patty Day, or by whom. We’re not going to let that stop us from celebrating!

So, in honor of this day, here’s a recipe for a great cocktail called the Peppermint Pattini.
