Product Spotlight - Genuine Irish Gifts For St. Patrick's Day   

‍

Introduction  

St. Patrick's Day is a great way for Irish-Americans to celebrate their heritage. Even people with only a little Irish ancestry in them might want to participate in the festivities. Just wearing green isn't enough. To really make the holiday special, go fully authentic and buy genuine Irish gifts for St. Patrick's Day. 

‍

Clothing and Accessories 

While many people wear green t-shirts with a shamrock or "Kiss Me, I'm Irish" logo printed on them, other options to appear more Irish exist. Men can show some flair with a shamrock suit, complete with green suspenders and a shamrock tie or they can dress more casually with a Guinness rugby shirt. Both men and women might wear an Irish wool sweater or Aran crewneck sweater. When going outdoors, you should wrap yourself with a cashmere cape and matching wool scarf.

For headgear, wear a leprechaun hat or green tweed cap. Women can celebrate St. Patrick's day by wearing jewelry, including green bead bracelets or emerald earrings. Claddagh rings remain popular Irish jewelry gifts or you can get a silver emerald claddagh heart necklace from Belfast-based Glendara Jewelry. 

‍

Food and Drinks   

Many people drink green-dyed beer or a pint of Guinness in honor of St. Patrick's Day. Hot drinks include Irish cream coffee and Irish breakfast tea bags in a tin box. 

Start the holiday with green doughnuts or bagels. Later on, you might serve authentic Irish snacks such as shortbread cookies, Irish whiskey-flavored hard candies and chocolate candies in gold coin wrappers. Corned beef and cabbage makes for an ideal dinner and Irish soda bread, including Hogan's White Irish Soda Bread, is a traditional dessert.
