Hi there! Before you head into the weekend, check out a few things we're loving at Sip Better. Enjoy!
FRIDAY FAVES - 8.13.21
- Prima's Bath Gem (pictured above) is my new favorite indulgence. This hefty cube is infused with 25mg of hemp CBD, plus Epsom salts, lavendar, and camphor to melt away stress. This silky soak is the bomb (oof, sorry)!
- If you need a beautiful gift for a lady in your life, consider pre-ordering I Hope This Finds You Well, by Kate Baer. It's a collection of clever and poignant poems Kate created from the many messages she has received from followers and trolls online. So interesting!
- In case you want to brush up on natural wines before the weather turns cooler, here's our quick primer!
- "What Climate Change Might Do To Your Favorite Wine," via the Wall Street Journal.
- We love gift and subscription boxes around here (duh!), and this Adults & Crafts subscription box looks like a whimsical way to connect with your artsy side!
Until next week!

Good day and thanks for coming by! Here's what we've rounded up for the weekend. Enjoy!
FRIDAY FAVES - 7.30.21
- The teens have spoken: here's what's cool in 2021! (Cargo pants? Really?!)
- For your weekend socializing, grab a bottle of Bonny Doon 'Vin Gris de Cigare' Rosé. Leslee calls it a "gorgeously textured and layered rosé" that will impress even the snobbiest of pink drinkers. ;)
- Don't the Olympics make you feel good? We were especially excited to hear that Minnesota native (represent!) Sunisa Lee won the gold medal in women's gymnastics all-around.
- Cannot WAIT for Only Murders In The Building to premiere.
- What do you think of these silk scrunchies from Brooklinen?
- Cute, literary-themed gifts for the wine lover!
Have a great day!
