Slainte 2020

Explaining Ireland’s most famous toast, “Sláinte”, just in time for St. Patrick’s Day!

St. Patrick’s Day is just around the bend & it’s likely you’ll encounter a few ‘Sláinte’ toasts.

But do you know what sláinte means?

Translating to ‘Good Health’ in English, sláinte [SLAHN-chə] is an Irish expression that derives from the Old Irish word slán, meaning “healthy” or “safe”.

So here is this week’s fresh Gravy…and why not?

Slainte!
