I decided to make those Irish Cream macarons in honor of the upcoming St Patrick’s day celebrations that are in complete swing in my metropolis already.

Once the beer arrives on the native Irish Pubs, the celebrations officially jump aka consuming of mentioned beer till the St Patty’s Day parade, the weekend earlier than March 17th. And needless to say all of it ends with throbs of events on March 17th.

200 g confectioner's sugar
90 g egg whites (~3 enormous egg whites), at room temperature
¼ teaspoon cream of tartar
pinch of salt
50 g granulated sugar
