Baileys Mistletoe Martini
This holiday season, Baileys Original Irish Cream is being sold with a simple bow to invite people to incorporate eco-friendly practices into their gifting ideas and festivities. By replacing wrapping paper with a simple bow or purchasing instantly giftable items, holiday shoppers can help reduce the amount of waste produced over the holiday season.
Other tips to create an unforgettable and eco-friendly holiday are:
Create your own holiday tree. Instead of buying a freshly cut tree or one made of plastic, decorate a plant that you already have in your home or purchase one which can then be transplanted to your garden.
Send holiday e-cards instead of cards made with paper or choose recycled paper options.
Save your holiday bows and any wrapping paper used for other occasions.
Avoid plastic or paper plates and utensils. And instead of disposable serving platters, invest in ceramics which can be used for several years, or purchase white ceramics and decorate them for the holidays with appropriate paint.
And to make your festivities even more special, try this Baileys recipe to get the holiday party started:
