Lucky tips for St. Patrick’s Day

3/17/2022

0 Comments

 
St. Patrick’s Day is today! With more opportunities to enjoy the holiday we hope you enjoy festivities this year safely and responsibly.

Looking for inspiration on what to do today? Well, you’re in luck! See what you can do to celebrate the holiday while also supporting local business:
​
  • Pick up some treats at a local bakery or try baking some lucky clover cookies yourself – don’t forget the green food colouring! 
  • Kick up your heels and dance, maybe even learn an Irish Jig and show off your dance moves to your friends.
  • Take your kids on a walk through a local park to hunt for leprechaun gold. Make sure to admire the blooms that were counted during the 47th Annual Greater Victoria Flower Count!
  • Make a traditional Irish meal – Irish stew, soda bread, corned beef, and shepherd’s pie are all delicious options. 
  • Don’t feel like cooking? Order classic Irish meals from restaurants around town, including the Irish Times Pub – rated as the Best Irish Pub in North America. 
  • Taste test a few whiskies — perhaps an award-winning whisky from Victoria Caledonian Distillery?
  • Spice up your evening with an Irish Coffee. Be sure to buy coffee beans from a local supplier. 
  • Visit a local brewery/ distillery or buy a gift card to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day anytime of the year.
