Bottles are for Babies

Before you judge me on blogging about boxed wine...put a cork in!

My ex roommate Emily introduced me to this boxed beverage. Three Thieves has created lightweight, portable, eco-smart cartons of wine and sangria called Bandit. The money they save on glass and cork they put towards making a better quality wine. The wine comes from various regions in California and each small 500ml carton (equivalent to 2/3 bottle of wine) runs about $7. You should be able to find them at most local wine stores. Plus, they're perfect to bring to the park for a picnic.

Bandit was recently featured on O Magazine!
