SHOW YOUR PATRIOTISM
Eco Friendly and Red, White and Blue Accessories to Make Your Patriotic Spirit Pop
by Carrie Pollare, Editor
Come on! We had to do it! While our lovely economy has tried to crush our spirits, it’s still a great time of hope as we inaugurate our new President today, and we should all be thinking about showing our patriotism. So, why not sport the colors! Especially if you’re hitting an inauguration party, whether it’s casual or dressy, it’s nice to show you’re patriotism without overdoing it by wearing a flag dress… Here are our picks for some hot red, white and/or blue eco friendly accessories.

CELEBRATE THE INAUGURATION WITH AN ALL NATURAL
RED, WHITE & BLUEBERRY!
If you’re watching all the inauguration festivities with friends, here’s a fun little celebratory cocktail from Stirrings all natural mixers to add to the fun! If you can get the layering done correctly, it’s quite artistic. If not, just throw it all over ice.
Ingredients:
2 parts Stirrings Authentic Grenadine
2 parts Stirrings Blueberry Martini Mixer
3 parts Square One Organic Vodka
Chill the ingredients if you’re going to try the layering thing. First, put in the cold vodka, followed by the grenadine. With a steady hand, the grenadine should sink to the bottom. Then add the Blueberry Mixer on top with a spoon. Cheers!
Fun Fact: Grenadine is derived from the Spanish word “Granada,” which means pomegranate. It was originally made with crushed pomegranate seeds, which is how Stirrings makes theirs. So, in this drink, between that and the blueberries, you’re getting a dose of anti-oxidants!
