St. Patrick may be the patron saint of Ireland, but many St. Patrick’s Day traditions were born in the United States. In Ireland, since 1631, St. Patrick’s Day has been a religious holy day to commemorate the anniversary of the 5th-century death of the missionary credited with spreading Christianity to Ireland. Americans celebrate this day differently - they wear green clothes and quaff green beer. Green milkshakes, bagels and grits appear on menus. In a leprechaun-worthy shenanigan, Chicago even dyes its river green. Poland takes after the United States and turns St Patrick's Day into the day of fun. Thus, expect loads of fun when celebrating St Patrick's Day at the Irish Pub Pod Papugami - so come wearing green and enjoy green coloured drinks!
