Shecky’s

A St. Paddy’s Day drinker’s worst fear this Saturday? Peaking at 2pm and missing out on the after-dark debauchery your friends will definitely stumble into. Don’t fret, there are ways to avoid double vision and a green face by mid-afternoon. Best part? These tricks fit right in your purse for easy access throughout the biggest drinking day of the year. So grab some green garb and get geared up for a day of pure fun!

First things first, you’re going to need energy to keep yourself charged throughout the day. Alcohol tends to make people operate at a snail’s pace, and that’s the last thing you need if you want to finish this St. Paddy’s strong! Pick up a pack of Jolt Caffeine Energy Gum in Spearmint ($0.99 on shoprite.com) so you can chew your way through to a second…third…or even fourth wind.
