Who Likes Shamrock Shakes?

Do you know what today is? Why, it's St. Patrick's Day lads! Today is a nationally celebrated day famously known for encouraging you to wear green to avoid getting pinched; receive a kiss for being Irish (or for not being Irish); and to have fun with the kids by eating green food and having talks of lucky pots of gold and leprechauns.

We know we're your orthodontic practice and St. Patrick's Day may be a little out of the spectrum of our expertise, but when it comes to our patients we love to encourage you to have fun and try new things! That's because Poser Orthodontics genuinely cares about our patients.

Check out this delicious recipe we hope you will try out today. Shamrock shakes are always a hit on St. Patty's Day!
