St. Patrick’s Day Doughnuts From Krispy Kreme Are Here-Feel Lucky?
It’s no secret I absolutely adore Krispy Kreme doughnuts. In case you forgot, St. Patrick’s Day is March 17. And, to celebrate, St. Patrick’s Day doughnuts from Krispy Kreme are here. So, if you are feeling lucky order a “Good As Gold Dozen,” featuring 3 of each special doughnut. I love the clever names including, Golden Cookies & Kreme, Hat O’ Gold, Golden Sprinkle and Rainbow Kreme Filled. The Golden Cookies & Kreme is filled and dipped in icing before being sprinkled with golden cookie pieces and gold sprinkles, according to their website. The Hat O’ Gold variety is chocolate iced with a green plaid icing design and a leprechaun sugar hat. Then, the Golden Sprinkle features the Original Glazed dipped in green icing and sprinkled with gold. Finally, the Rainbow Kreme Filled is unglazed, but filled and decorated with green icing, rainbow sugar feature, vanilla buttercream and gold coins.
Now, if you can’t make it to a Krispy Kreme you might find a 6 count variety at select grocery stores. However, pay attention to this sweet deal. On March 16 and 17 only, you have a chance to indulge in Original Glazed dozens with solid green icing. Make sure you pre order on March 15 to get them before all the leprechauns grab them. And, also on March 16 and 17 only, Krispy Kreme offers guests a free green glazed doughnut. According to the website, guests must wear green and visit a participating location in person. And, the offer is good in shop and drive thru only, limit 1 doughnut per guest per visit per day. Go to their website for participating locations near you. But, don’t miss these lucky deals as St. Patrick’s Day doughnuts from Krispy Kreme are here!
5 Delicious Things North Carolina Is Known And Famous For
BBQ
North Carolina is known for its barbecue, with two main styles – Eastern and Lexington. For fans of succulent meat, this is definitely a treat to try.
Eastern style BBQ is all about the whole pork, which is cooked over an open pit of hardwood coals. The meat is then chopped or pulled and served with a vinegar-based sauce on the side. This style is common along the coast of Piedmont.
In Lexington style, they focus more on the pork shoulder, which is smoked and then served with a ketchup and vinegar-based sauce. The sauce tends to be sweeter and thicker.
Whichever style you prefer, North Carolina knows how to do BBQ right! Make sure you give it a shot. Better yet, try both styles to find out which is your favorite.
