WINSTON-SALEM, N.C.--()--Krispy Kreme Doughnuts is turning an icon deliciously green in celebration of St. Patrick’s Day, and for the first time ever for multiple days.

Krispy Kreme is bringing back its “O’riginal” Glazed Doughnut on Friday and Saturday, March 16-17, at participating Krispy Kreme shops in the U.S. and Canada. A twist on Krispy Kreme’s most iconic doughnut, the O’riginal Glazed Doughnut is specially formulated with green dough and glazed hot in traditional Krispy Kreme fashion.

“Krispy Kreme O’riginal Glazed Doughnuts are fun to eat all on their own, so we thought there is no better way to dial up the fun than going green for St. Patrick’s Day. We know many people also celebrate the holiday Friday, so we’re making the O’riginal Glazed Doughnuts available that day, too,” said Jackie Woodward, Chief Marketing Officer of Krispy Kreme Doughnuts.

No matter how you plan to celebrate, the O’riginal Glazed Doughnut is the perfect St. Patrick’s Day weekend treat for family and friends. Show how you’re going green with Krispy Kreme’s O’riginal Glazed Doughnut by using #GreenDoughnuts.
