5 Really Weird, Useful Things You Can Do With Wine—Like Scrub Your Produce

May 16, 2016

(Washingtonian) - The Symphony Woods Lobby Shop is hosting this year’s Wine in the Woods, a festival that celebrates (you guessed it) wine! The festival is out in Howard County, Maryland right off the Columbia Pike. It attracts about 30,000 patrons who come for the music, food and, of course, delicious wine. Tickets cost between $20 and $32 and kids and designated drivers get a discount.

Head out to the festival and grab a glass (or three). For those of you wine enthusiasts who love wine but can never seem to finish a bottle—don’t let the good stuff go to waste. Here are five ways you can put those leftovers to use after the festival is over!

Make Your Plants Happy

Wine makes everything a little better for you—and your plants! Instead of throwing away leftover wine that’s no longer fit for your sophisticated palate, use it to fertilize your plants. Drop the rest of your wine into your compost pile where it’ll help the good bacteria do its thing. You’ll feel good for recycling, and your garden will get a little pick-me-up. Everyone wins!

Smooth Your Skin

According to some sources, red wine is also good for your skin. Drop a cup (or two) into your next bath and let the burgundy liquid soften your skin. Pour a glass for yourself to get a nice glow both inside and out!
