St Patrick's Day is a wonderful day on the calendar; mostly because it gives everybody an excuse to drink themselves silly and paint themselves green for the day (And night). However, it's not all about that is it? It's a day where we should be celebrating an Irish saint; a day when we should be honoroing Irish tradition and celebrating our Irish heritage (Those of us who are Irish, and I can assure you the author of this article is most certainly not) 

Although the drinking is fun, we'd like to remind people that that's not all St Paddy's is about. In order to separate the lads from the men, the lassies from the ladies and the alcoholics from the true Irish folk, we've designed this short quiz that will answer the simple question: How Irish are you? 

You can take the quiz below and feel free to send us your score on Twitter, Facebook, or on the comments section below. Those with the highest scores will get retweets and mentions on Facebook, Twitter and ZAlebs! 

By the way, a big shout out to all the One Direction fans who are only reading this post because of the main image on the website. We appreciate the page views and hope you can take part in this quiz (Although we're sure that you are: 1. Underage and cannot drink 2. Probably don't know what St Paddy's is 3. Literally only clicked on this because of the One Direction image)

Good luck to ye all!
