Irish Resolve to Rectify Issues
Timefor a lively twist on a classic! Originally, Cobblers and Fixes were vibrant concoctions mixed with wine and ice. Over the years, they've evolved to incorporate various spirits and mixers, served over crushed or shattered ice. The only significant difference? A Cobbler typically clocks in at 12 ounces, while a Fix - a newer addition to the 20th century, mind you - amounts to a fruity 8 ounces.
This spirited delight graced our St. Patty's Day Recipes photo gallery, adding a dash of zest to the celebration.
