St. Patrick's Day, the feast day of the patron saint of Ireland, will be celebrated by people all over the United States on March 17, 2022. St. Patrick's Day is typically dedicated to spending time with friends and family and eating well—in my house, for example, we whip up green pancakes and sip on mimosas until well into the afternoon.
Whether you're lucky enough to be celebrating together, or you're simply preparing for a long day of wearing green and eating well, we've rounded up a few products that can help—from a DNA test to help you figure out whether or not you're actually as Irish as your parents claim (I took one with my sister and found out just how Irish she is and I am not ), to a beautiful green pot for your Irish stew, soda bread, or whatever else you're whipping up for the holiday.
1. Explore your heritage with a DNA test
Discover when your ancestors made moves from Ireland.
If you've ever wondered just how Irish your family is, you're not alone. After years of attending St. Patrick's Day celebrations, I was curious about where my own heritage stood. Taking a DNA test with AncestryDNA helped me see how Irish I actually am. AncestryDNA is hosting a deal ahead of St. Patrick’s Day, which means you can learn about your heritage for $40 less than you might normally spend on a DNA kit.

2. A deep pot for Irish stew
Add a bit of green to your kitchen for St. Patrick's Day.
If Irish stew, soda bread, or other Irish items are on the menu for St. Patrick’s Day, but you’re missing a Dutch oven to cook them in, look no further than the Perfect Pot. The Perfect Pot provides all the functionality of a Dutch oven with the versatility of the Always Pan. We reviewed the Perfect Pot and enjoyed its easy-to-clean design, induction-friendly build and temperature regulation.

7. An understated claddagh bracelet
In case someone needs a pick-me-up for the holiday.
Claddagh are, in some cases, synonymous with Irish heritage and pride, given as symbols of faith and solidarity. Claddagh rings hold special meaning, but the claddagh can be found on many different kinds of jewelry. This bracelet from QVC has excellent reviews, and is made with durable, understated steel, bringing together old and new.

Green dye can really get you in St. Patrick's Day mood—just ask the city of Chicago.
