135 Parkway Rd, Bronxville; 914.771.0400
There’s no shortage of green goodies here, and the festive offerings include shamrock cookies with green buttercream dip, a hot cocoa bomb, chocolate-dipped pretzels, chocolate-covered strawberries, rainbow cupcakes, and soda bread.
Homestyle Desserts Bakery
24 S Water St, Peekskill; 914.737.4659
Giving new meaning to the term “bomb,” the hot cocoa bombs at this northerly bakery come with a kick. Boozy chocolate bombs and boozy coffee chocolate bombs bring a little “extra” to the celebration and can be paired with chocolate shot glasses. If you’re looking for something simpler, think St. Patrick’s Day cupcakes, shamrock sugar cookies, shamrock iced coffees, and Irish soda bread.

Penny Lick Ice Cream
580 Warburton Ave, Hastings-on-Hudson; 914.525.1580
For celebrating in a strictly pure and natural kind of way, this Shamrock Shake is all natural with no green dye, but it’s still as festive as you can get! The Rivertown cool spot uses local dairy, and all the ice cream is free of peanuts and tree nuts, meaning almost anyone can enjoy the Shamrock Shake in Westchester this month.
