St. Patrick’s Day is almost here! The one day of the year we can all be Irish. Break out the glasses, shamrocks and green dye, it’s time for a merry jig to get you into the St. Paddy’s spirit.

Here are five quick tips to get you ready for March 17th.

#1) Make sure you have your Irish beer, whiskey and liqueurs ready.

Whether you’re throwing a party or just enjoying the holiday with a few close friends, you’re going to need to stock up and get ready for the celebration. So we’re here to help you do just that!

Head over to our website and pick up all your St. Paddy’s essentials! Shop Now

#2) Wear green, avoid the pinch.

Let’s be honest. No one likes the person who has to give you a pinch. No matter where you work, or who you’re with, someone is going to try and pull this.

Don’t be this guy.

#3) Mix up some Irish-themed cocktails

If you’re the host you better be ready. Don’t be the person who thought the beer you had sitting in the fridge was enough. Remember, folks like cocktails on St. Patrick’s Day too (especially made with Irish whiskey).

Looking for the perfect St. Patrick’s Day cocktail to mix up? Check out the Total Wine & More Cocktail Corner!

#4) Get your jig on!
