Céad mile fáilte! A hundred thousand welcomes!

 

Happy St. Patrick’s Day! One of the bigger drinking days of the year. A day when everyone becomes Irish just for the day. And anyone who’s anyone knows that the Irish are great talkers, blessed with the gift of gab. In honor of this, we at Over Drinks share with you 13 – that’s right! a full baker’s dozen – toasts and quotes to wax poetic with your guests.

 

Feel free to share these as you like.

 

And remember to serve and drink responsibly.

 

Who says you can only have beer or whiskey on St. Patrick’s Day? Wine is perfectly acceptable.

 

For your pals, old and new. Celebrate them with this short and sweet toast.

 

Lord Byron might have been on to something. Just make sure to intoxicate responsibly.

 

Shine yer insides.

 

Ah, a most Irish sounding phrase.

 

And a little Irish language to go along with it all. Here’s how to say it – ban-uck-tee nah fail-ya paud-rig.

 

An ode to the drinking of the drink.

 

Another very Irish sounding bit.

 

Blue skies and green fields.

 

All of Ireland wants the best for you.

 

Luckily, dregs are rare these days.

 

Where is that other guy? I think it’s his turn…

 

And when things get a little rough at the pub, a diffuser.

 

Have fun out there and be safe. We’re off to start the corned beef and soda bread!
