While you might be indulging in some green beer on St. Patrick’s Day, that’s not exactly appropriate for the kiddos. But how about some green milk in their cereal bowls to celebrate the Irish holiday?
The iconic oat and marshmallow cereal, Lucky Charms, has released a St. Patrick’s Day version! The cereal isn’t actually green, but it will change that boring old white milk into a green concoction your kids will love.
The marshmallows in the cereal come in their usual heart, star, horseshoe, and rainbow shapes, but this limited edition version also has green clover. When you pour the milk over your cereal, poof! You get a fun green liquid in your breakfast.
The milk-changing version of the classic cereal is available now in major grocery stores, like Kroger and Walmart, for just $3.33. You’ll have to check your local store’s stock in person, though, as currently, there’s no way to do so via the brand’s website.
According to Mindy Murray, senior brand experience manager for Lucky Charms, the brand wanted to continue its long history of not just being delicious, but magically so.
“For generations, Lucky Charms has been synonymous with wonderment and fun,” Murray said in a press release. “And this year we’re adding even more colorful magic for a special St. Patrick’s Day.”
It’s certainly a fun, yet easy, way to get your kids in the St. Patrick’s Day spirit! If you want to continue the celebration with lunch or dinner, whip up a batch of Irish stew or some soda bread this year!
